$BR ｜Funding rate -0.371%｜Shorts pay
Before looking at fund flows, first understand the funding rate.
Perpetual contracts have no settlement date. The funding rate keeps the contract price close to the spot price: longs and shorts periodically pay each other a fee.
Many people pay closer attention to how long the rate persists: extreme values lasting several consecutive periods are more noteworthy than a one-time spike.
Leave enough room in your contract positions—don't let a single wick liquidate your position.
