$RIVER wasn’t cheap to hold - around $450 paid in funding fees - but the trade still closed clean at $1,230.90, leaving a solid $780.90 net. Fees matter, structure matters, but execution still pays. 📊
$RIVER offers good price movement and I’ve made solid profits trading it over the past few weeks. However, the funding fees are excessive and consistently cut into returns, even on correct trades. Fees are part of futures trading, but when they feel this aggressive, it raises concerns about how the pair is structured. Because of that, $RIVER isn’t ideal for consistent trading despite the opportunities it presents.
