The cost of cross-border arbitrage is defined as the following:
[(LME +/- ADJ +CIF) * USD/RMB*(1+VAT) *(1+TARIFF) + ADMIN] – SHFE = arbitrage level
For this example, the arbitrage level is mainly affected by exchange rates, import duty, and price fluctuation. When the exchange rate fluctuates rapidly it may change buying power of domestic currency and importing costs.
Apart from these values, it is important to monitor the perimeters adjustment of different products as each of them will have a different indicator. Focussing on such details will be conducive to obtaining more accurate information while offering the lowest arbitrage cost.
Overall, paying attention to the cost calculation and key ratios will increase arbitrage opportunities and risk-free arbitrage profits.

Fundamental
A fundamental is an arbitrage philosophy based on specific events. Alternatively, the fundamental analysis is the process of determining the model price of a futures contract, now and in the future, using factors like microeconomic data, macroeconomic data, and industry financial conditions.
This is one of the factors that are integral to the arbitrage strategy, but there are many other factors.
