OK this makes a lot more sense now. So you’re engaging arbitrage by taking advantage of my transitive preferences?
I could see this scenario being possible, but not if you described all the trades to me beforehand (I assume limiting information is a prerequisite for the pump to work)

Perhaps not this specific set of trades, but money-pumps have been demonstrated experimentally. It’s obviously wrong, but there’s no theoretical reason why someone might not be susceptible to it.
