Live funding rate, open interest, and price action for — perpetual futures across Binance, Bybit, and OKX.
What is — funding rate?
Funding rate is the periodic payment exchanged between long and short traders in a perpetual futures contract.
How to read the data above
The cards above show the current spot price and the funding rate on each of the three major perpetual futures exchanges. Funding rates are quoted as a percentage per 8-hour window. To annualize a rate, multiply by 3 (for daily) and then by 365. A funding rate of +0.01% per 8h is roughly +10.95% APR for the long side.
Trading strategy on —
When — funding is consistently positive above 0.01% per 8h, longs are paying a meaningful premium to stay long. Historically, this is a sign of crowded positioning that often precedes a flush. When funding is consistently negative below -0.01%, shorts are paying longs, and a short squeeze becomes more likely. The funding dashboard tracks these extremes across all pairs.
Cross-exchange funding arbitrage
Funding rates often diverge between Binance, Bybit, and OKX for the same coin. The largest divergences are highlighted on the funding dashboard. A trader can go long on the lower-funding venue and short on the higher-funding venue to capture the spread, holding a delta-neutral position.
