I'm curious to know, do you actually pay funding on perpetual futures? I've heard conflicting information on this topic and I'm hoping you can provide some clarity. Can you explain what funding is in the context of perpetual futures, and if so, how it's calculated and when it's paid? Additionally, are there any factors that can influence the amount of funding paid, and are there any strategies that traders can use to manage or even profit from funding payments? I'm eager to learn more about this aspect of perpetual futures trading.

Funding in the world of cryptocurrency trading refers to a payment that takes place between holders of long and short perpetual positions. This process is essential for maintaining the balance and integrity of the market.

The direction of funding received or paid is determined by the status of your open positions at the end of each hour. If you hold a long position and the market is bullish, you are likely to receive funding. Conversely, if you hold a short position and the market is bearish, you may be required to pay funding.
