Abstract

We analyze intraday liquidity for a range of cryptocurrencies across different exchanges. Among the liquidity measures used, slippage is most interesting for crypto traders, as it directly impacts their profit/loss. We find evidence that slippage can be explained by liquidity measures indicating that trades are timed. We report various liquidity patterns that allow traders to increase their profits by minimizing liquidity-dependent trading costs. We further find indications that crypto exchanges can control liquidity by the number of offered currency pairs.
