$META 24小时跌3.5%，资金费率0.0002仍为正。这是单边下跌行情里多头还没死心的结构。
In a falling trend, keeping the funding rate positive indicates that long positions are still propping things up with leverage. According to the funding rate rules, a positive funding rate means longs pay shorts. So as price falls and longs are losing money, they also have to pay funding—costs accumulate on top of costs. Combined with the open interest (30122), even though the price is moving down, the positions are not showing obvious loosening. This reflects a positioning that is still betting on policies favorable to Trump while resisting the market’s current pricing of reality.
The logic behind this resistance is that the market may previously have simplified the “Trump trade” to being uniformly bullish for big tech. Meta, as an advertising and AI concept stock, was once placed on a beneficiary list. But the reality is that policy implementation has timing gaps, and the market has started repricing the costs within the Trump trade—such as the uncertainty around regulation for technology companies. What longs are betting on is policy sentiment; what shorts are hitting is short-term reality.
The strongest counterargument is that if Trump introduces specific, clearly favorable policies for the tech sector—even rumors alone—they could trigger a short-covering rally. A positive funding rate now also implies shorts are collecting money, meaning their positioning is not entirely one-sided and uniform.
However, squeezing in the opposite direction requires a catalyst. The current risk is that if prices keep drifting lower, these long positions with floating losses may be forced to stop out. Their liquidations would increase sell pressure, creating a negative feedback loop. This is the most fragile link in the long camp.
I won’t gamble on a rebound here. When trading the Trump theme, either wait until the catalyst becomes clear, or wait until the position structure is fully cleaned up. For $META , I choose to wait. Once open interest drops significantly, or the funding rate turns negative—indicating longs are giving up and shorts have become crowded—then we can reassess whether there’s an opportunity for a contrarian move.
Aggressive: If the price rebounds to above 748.92 (current price) and the funding rate turns negative, you can take a small-position long to test the trade for a short-term bounce. Conservative: Stay on the sidelines and wait for a clear signal that OI is declining or the funding rate turns negative. Avoid: Going long at the current price is like catching a falling knife—don’t touch.
