SolanaMevBot is an atomic arbitrage trading bot, which makes profit by trading between different DEXs and catch the price difference between them in a single TX to make profit.
Example:
Atomic arbitrage trades are usually low risk and low margin. You won't make 100 SOL a day running the bot, but you also won't lose all your fundings overnight.
A single trade may only earn you 0.0001 SOL for example. Though the up side about it is it's close to 0 risk running the bot. Unlike meme coin trading where you face big risk if you didn't sell the token in time, for atomic arbitrage trade your transaction won't succeed if it doesn't make you any profit. And you won't hold any tokens as all of them will be bought and sold in the same transaction.
The overall profitability depends on a lot of different factors, market conditions, your VPS/RPC, your bot strategy etc. Most of the bot users are earning enough to cover their VPS/RPC cost, and can earn from 0.1 SOL to a few SOL every day.
The bot periodically try to use all the trade sizes you defined to trade through all the intermedium mints and see if there's any profitable arbitrage opportunities. This may lead to hundreds or thousands of requests to Jupiter to get price quote and time for the bot to process all these potential routes to find opportunities.
Here are some of the logs that are useful to help you see how performant your setsup is
Time Spent: This is how long in total the bot spent to find an opportunity and sent it out, on one trade size + one intermedium mint.
Jupiter Quote Time: This is how long it takes to make quotes to Jupiter(multiple ones) to check if there's an opportunity, on one trade size + one intermedium mint. If this is too high for you check
