Abstract: The case is based on the fact that arbitrage opportunities are available in the foreign exchange market. A hypothetical case has been framed to understand the concept of the triangulation arbitrage strategy.

The entire case is focused on the spot foreign exchange market in which traders exercise their trade. Intra-day data of various currency pairs are taken to describe the triangulation strategy.

Therefore, this case study provides enough scope for debate on the arbitrage opportunity, trading process, and the role of transaction cost in the foreign exchange market.
