Opal dragon bolts (e) have a Grand Exchange value of 3006, while Opal dragon bolts only have a Grand Exchange value of 2791. You can enchant a set of 10 bolts every game tick, and accounting for the amount of time it takes to run to the Fountain of Rune and back, you can expect to enchant at least 54,000 sets of bolts per hour. This is effectively 11,610,000 per hour.
Once you have made all of your bolts, sell them on the Grand Exchange. Maximise your profit by buying one enchanted opal dragon bolt and selling yours patiently at that price.
Note that because this method burns up to 54,000 - 60,000 unenchanted bolts per hour (hypothetical limit), you should leave in a buy order over multiple nights to accumulate bolts.
Also note that you have to 1-tick the enchanting, you cannot let it run on auto-pilot.
Using a low level alt account may decrease the risk of getting killed by other players, as the alt may be outside the usual player killers' level range. Having a back-up from friends and/or clan members (who may be using this same money making method) can also help decrease risk during the processing.
