    Arbitration. “Arbitrage” is when you buy something (such as a currency) and then immediately exchange it for a profit due to a discrepancy in rates.

      fwiw Wiktionary lists a second definition:

      (archaic) Arbitration.

      Dunno just how archaic that is, and perhaps if it’s more archaic in some dialects than others.
