Just sharing a personal take: before opening a futures position, I always check the funding rate first.
Take $AIN right now: 0.114%, with longs paying, which works out to an annualized rate of about 248.9%.
When the rate is high, going long means paying shorts every funding period while hoping the price keeps rising—not a great risk-reward tradeoff.
What leverage do you usually use?
