It is a mechanism for transferring funds between long and short traders, with the platform not charging this fee. Instead, it adjusts the cost or profit for traders holding contracts. A funding rate of 0.01% indicates the baseline rate; rates above 0.01% suggest a generally bullish market; rates below 0.005% indicate a generally bearish market.
