I think it only works as long as you keep a low profile by trading small and don't make too many trades. Problem is that with arbitrage systems you must take many trades as the profit with each trade is very small (usually less than a pip), which eventually can give you up.
This is simply taking advantage of a broker's feed latency and this is something brokers do not like and don't want to let it happen.

it does not work. arbitrage is not only executing fast orders between 2 or more brokers.
there is much more of it.
if it would be that much easier LMAX FIX API traders would be millioners. at least 50x faster then MT4!!

Yeah, you are right. If it was so easy, dont you think everyone would use them. Further there are many commercial arbitrage system which show their impressive results only in demo accounts
