Go long on EUR/USD..expect some resistance in the 1.5080s...so far 500 pips gained if you traded from Tokyo session.

A protector of thieves!!!!

Regarding efficiency of arbitrage it will all depend on the person,but its a good risk-minimizing technique but that does not underlie that using other techniques are not efficient enough.

Arbitrage is a somehow a good risk-low strategy that allows an investor/trader to act fast on opportunities presented by the price inefficiencies on currency pairs.It comes after an trader notices strong correlations on the currency pairs,which means going against each other in most times. There is correlation effect as with EUR/USD and USD/CHF which mostly goes against.Its a correlation effect which have tracked and tested for some time by a trader and mathematically using arbitrage calculators to attest the correlations as they are simple than manually. I can say its all about finding strong correlations.Like in EUR/USD USD/CHF there is a strong near perfect negative correlation of -98% which means that if the first pair is making a move upward chances are that the opposite will be made on the second pair.
Other currencies have also positive correlations like the AUD/USD NZD/USD most of the time has positive correlations and other pairs too.

Example EUR/USD,EUR/GBP,GBP/USD pairs are 1.1837,0.7231,and 1.6388 respectively. In this case,a forex trader could buy one mini-lot of EUR for $11,837 USD. The trader could then sell the 10,000 Euros,for 7,231 British pounds. The 7,231 GBP,could then be sold for $11,850 USD,for a profit of $13 per trade,with no open exposure as long positions cancel short positions in each currency. The same trade using normal lots of 100K,would yield a profit of $130.

One good thing is that it minimize losses and acts as a hedge.
In an instance that you take a short position with EUR/USD 100k units and short position USD/CHF 100k units and the EUR/USD increases by 10 pips a person may end up making $100 loss on first pair but(taking into account the exchange rate) the USD/CHF will make a profit of $84.You will have minimized losses to around $16.Depending on the strong movements of the pairs which may inhibit your profits also.But in the worst case scenarios it minimizes your losses at times.Taking long and short position helps a person to even double up the profits and even diversify advantage.
-It also discourages repeating taking positions that cancel each other and save time.It also corrects itself on the errors done at times.

But this does not mean its a perfect,as @tonicasert said there are also pitfalls which ae very influential.Arbitrage trading requires real time pricing quotes to take advantage of very fast taking into account the different time zones.

- Correlations strengths also are not constant with time though they depend on how strong they are.Most correlations change with time as economic events change the strength of correlations and at most times have an effect of shifting trends.The effect of shifting trends are very serious in the pairs and a person needs to have information and updates,its not a comfortable zone as when the shifting trends occur they will only end up reducing your profits without even you knowing as you will think it will correct itself.You need to have information!!

For a person who have tested it and feels comfortable then its good,congrats @alala. This does not mean that using technicals and fundamentals are still inefficient and as @tonicasert said usage of techniques best at the person is also the best.I do believe that developing techniques with fundamentals and technicals and others wont make you spend a lot time and make mistakes,it largely depends on the effectives of the trader on the techniques.

Its good we are sharing good information.Whats up@tonicasert!




@NGAATU

Incase there is someone still long on the EUR/USD pair,it would be advisable to TP now. The big range evident in the open today makes this pair open to all sorts of movement in the NY session. I would suggest closing any open position and re-entering the pair when the NY session gives it a definite movement.
