$RLC |Funding rate: -0.0761%|Shorts pay
Before discussing funding, first understand the funding rate.
Perpetual contracts have no expiry date. Funding rates keep contract prices anchored to spot prices by having longs and shorts pay each other a fee at regular intervals.
Funding rates for low-liquidity coins tend to fluctuate more sharply. One unusually high reading may not mean much; extreme rates in top coins are much rarer.
Indicators can fail, so always use a stop-loss: planning what to do if you’re wrong matters more than getting the prediction right.
