Oh my, this guy made $43,800 (about 310,000 RMB) just by sleeping!
Original text: My OpenClaw woke me up at 3:47 AM with a single message:
"Detected 6 markets that will settle in the next 90 minutes, while the US is still asleep, needing approval for a deployment of $12,000."
I typed "yes" and then fell back asleep. When I woke up, I found an extra $43,800, having run a bot looking for timezone arbitrage opportunities for 9 days.
What happened at 3:47 AM:
The bot detected 6 markets settling between 4 AM and 6 AM, distributed across different time zones.
- Total edge value detected: Potential value of $43,000
- Window period: 90 minutes in advance
Required funds: $12,000
My phone vibrated
I opened Telegram half-awake
Saw "Approve or miss"
Typed "yes"
I closed my eyes
7:30 AM - Woken up by a notification:
During the Asian/European early trading session, all six markets had settled.
American traders woke up to find the markets had closed.
I built a position at prices ranging from 15 cents to 31 cents.
All issues were resolved at prices between 95 cents and 100 cents.
Profit composition:
- Japan: $8,200
- EU: $6,900
- South Korea: $11,400
- Australia: $7,100
- UAE: $5,800
- Singapore: $4,400
Total: +$43,800.
