Market Making Bot

Bounty Description

A market making bot leveraging the Zeta SDK that is able to provide quotes for multiple dated futures and effectively manage risk.

3 tiers of completion

Tier 1

A futures market maker that is able to interact with the Zeta orderbook and base trade, i.e. manage its own risk and quote around the orderbook midpoint (excluding its own orders).

• Should be able to quote all futures on the Zeta platform
• Should be aware of margin obligations and be able to scale quote sizes depending on potential margin usage
• Should look to use cancel-replace methods found in the Zeta SDK to maximise market making uptime.
• Should be able to have variable levels on book with multiple orders on each side.
• Should lean its quotes when taking on excessive risk either long/short
• Should have a maximum delta exposure threshold in which quotes become only one-sided, or the market maker sends a taker order to close partial / all of its position.
• Should have a basic level of logging for all parameters and all orders / trades which the market maker took on. Writing to disk is fine here.

Tier 2

An expiratory futures market maker that is able to interact with the Zeta orderbook and lean its quotes based on a mix of price feeds in addition to the midpoint of the existing orderbook.

• Should have all the functionality in market maker (1)
• Should be able to subscribe to FTX / Binance spot orderbook feeds (for the perpetual and the spot product).
• Should be able to price a future on Zeta as F = Se^(rt) where r is maintained internally
• Should be able to price a fair based on a blend of the futures pricing using FTX/Binance spot feed and Zeta Markets mids
• Should lean its quotes and retreat the "r" parameter when taking on excessive risk either long/short
• Should be able to consider aggregate risks across multiple futures of different expiries

Tier 3

An expiratory futures market maker that has the ability to hedge its risk on other venues

• Should have all the functionality in market makers (1) and (2)
• Should be able to look at multiple venues across DeFi and CeFi (Mango Markets perpetual, FTX perpetual) and be able to programatically hedge on the venue with the best bid/ask if there is a hedge to be made).
• [BONUS] Should have the ability to perform atomic arbitrage across DeFi venues (once FOK is implemented on Zeta)
• [BONUS] Should be ablet to programatically rebalance across multiple protocols as well as CeFi exchanges (i.e. recognise margin across the Zeta protocol and FTX / Mango and withdraw + send spl-usdc to deposit on either venue.)
• [BONUS] Should be able to market make across both the Mango perpetuals platform as well as the Zeta dated futures platform using a blended fair of the mango midpoint as well as the Zeta midpoint (inclusive of the basis pricing).

Requirements

• At all times each tier of completion should be submitted with a verified trading log for at least 48 hours, quoting at least 30 lots on each side.
• Github repo (the cleaner the better!)

Criteria

• Quality of the github repo
• Implementation of the market maker with regards to tiers
