Saucerswap Arbitrage

What This Skill Does

The Saucerswap Arbitrage skill, authored by harleyscodes, provides a robust framework for detecting and executing triangular arbitrage strategies on the Hedera network using the SaucerSwap decentralized exchange. Arbitrage relies on identifying price discrepancies across three specific token pairs, where a trader swaps Token A for B, B for C, and C back to A, aiming to end with more of Token A than they started with. This skill automates the calculation of expected outputs from the SaucerSwap router API, incorporates vital safety checks like slippage management and liquidity verification, and assists in the transaction construction process on Hedera.

Installation

You can integrate this skill into your environment by running the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/harleyscodes/saucerswap-arbitrage Ensure your local environment is configured with the necessary Hedera SDK dependencies, as this skill interacts directly with the Hedera network via the HAPI protocol rather than standard EVM methods.

Use Cases

• Automated Profit Hunting: Continuously monitor price spreads across various token pools to identify profitable triangular trade paths.
• Optimized Multi-hop Swapping: Execute complex token swaps that require multiple hops to achieve the best possible price impact.
• Liquidity Analysis: Assess the depth of specific liquidity pools before committing large transaction volumes to prevent significant slippage.
• Risk Mitigation: Utilize the built-in safety mechanisms to automatically calculate min-output thresholds, ensuring trades fail safely if the price shifts significantly before execution.

Example Prompts

1. "Analyze the current spread for the USDC-HBAR-USDC triangle and report any profit opportunities greater than 0.5%."
2. "Check the current liquidity depth for the SAUCE-USDC pool on SaucerSwap V2."
3. "Execute a swap of 500 USDC to HBAR, ensuring a slippage tolerance of 3% and valid Hedera transaction construction."

Tips & Limitations

When using this skill, remember that Hedera operates differently than Ethereum; you must use HAPI-native transaction structures rather than EVM-based ones. Fees are paid in tinybars, not gas. Always ensure your slippage tolerance is set appropriately to account for network latency in the Hedera gossip protocol. Finally, note that token addresses must be in 0.0.xxxxx format to avoid execution errors, and prioritize checking pool depth to avoid 'price impact' penalties that can quickly turn a profitable arbitrage trade into a net loss.
