Have you read Flash Boys by Michael Lewis?  You might get some ideas in there that could be applied.  I think there is a question of whether any of the bitcoin markets are liquid enough at the moment though.  :-)
even if you are you picking up nickle and dimes all the time on a market, there are hundreds of markets.

Exactly.  They add up quickly as long as you can execute the trades properly.

the algorithm for a scalping seems very straight forward.
buy coin
calculate fee
is lowest sale price still a profit?
if yes{
  post sale  .00000001 lower than lowest seller
}
if no {
  do nothing, leave it on the board.
}
