Tips for Setting Optimal Rates
Research Current Market Rates
Before updating your rates, check the current market rates for your currencies:
Look at the Liquidity tab to see what other providers are offering
Consider checking external exchanges for reference rates
Consider Spread and Competitiveness
Lower spreads (0.5-1%) will attract more buyers but offer less profit
Higher spreads (1-3%) provide more profit but may result in slower sales
Find the balance that works for your liquidity provision strategy
Monitor Performance
After updating rates:
Monitor how quickly your orders are filled
If orders aren't being filled, consider offering more competitive rates
If orders are filling very quickly, you might be able to increase your spread
Currency-Specific Strategies
Popular currencies like EUR may allow for higher spreads due to demand
Less common currencies might need more competitive rates to attract buyers
Consider different strategies for different currencies in your deposit
