$BERA |Rate -0.0804%|Shorts pay
Before looking at the flow of funds, first understand the funding rate.
Think of the funding rate as rent for holding a position: whichever side pushes the contract price away from the spot price is usually the side that pays.
A notably positive rate is often interpreted as overheated bullish sentiment, with more capital using leverage to go long; a notably negative rate suggests the opposite.
Don’t place an order during the sharpest price swings. Wait for the price action to play out before taking a look.
