Contract Trading | Funding Rate
What it is: Funding payments are transferred only between long and short positions in perpetual contracts. The platform doesn’t collect this money, and it’s separate from trading fees.
How to understand it: Perpetual contracts have no expiration date, so there’s no settlement process. Funding payments are a way to bring the contract price closer to the spot price.
A reminder: If you plan to hold a position for a long time, factor funding payments into your costs. When the rate is high, they can add up.
$BTC 77222.01(-0.75%)
