Just saw this: $ESPORTS ’s latest funding rate is +0.151% (settled every 4 hours), with longs paying.
People often ask how to interpret funding rates. This is how I understand them.
Funding settlement intervals vary by contract: some settle every 8 hours, others every 4 hours. During volatile market conditions, the interval for some contracts may be adjusted to 1 hour. Check the contract page for details.
For those holding positions on the paying side, the higher the rate, the more you’ll pay at each settlement, significantly increasing the cost of holding your position.
Keep extra margin for your futures positions so a sudden price swing doesn’t wipe them out.
