Why Can High Funding Rates Make Long-Term Positions Increasingly Expensive?

Many cryptocurrency traders focus on BTC price movements but overlook another factor that can continuously affect trading outcomes: funding rates.

You may have correctly predicted the market direction, and your position may temporarily be profitable, but if you hold a perpetual contract for a long time, ongoing funding payments can still erode your final returns.

AVAX is up +6% this time—stop crediting MYSE for it
Bottom line: The direct cause of this rally came from NYSE, not MYSE.
On November 9, ICE, the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange, announced that it had selected Avalanche as the main chain for clearing and settling transactions on its tokenized securities trading platform. ICE had been testing it for about a year. The platform is planned to launch in Q4 2026, pending SEC approval. After the announcement, AVAX surged intraday to $8.99$AVAX ‌, at one point gaining more than 10%; s

The CPI data came out, and it wasn’t particularly good. Earlier today, Waller had already spoken, preparing the market in advance. Various assets didn’t fall by much, and crypto assets didn’t see the bloodbath everyone had expected.

Meanwhile, after the CPI data came out, the U.S. secretary of state and various U.S. officials said that we were close to reaching an agreement with Iran and didn’t need to take further military action. This was clearly an attempt to soothe the market.

SoftBank lost 1.1 trillion yen in a single quarter, after earning 2.5 trillion yen in the same period last year. Is that swing dramatic enough?
Revenue is still growing, up 16% year over year, from 1.9 trillion yen to 2.2 trillion yen.
But volatility in its investment portfolio hammered profits. Once swings in the valuation of its AI holdings are amplified, the financial statements look this ugly.
Names like OpenAI and Arm sound like the future, but the future can bleed in quarterly reports.
Concerns about AI investments weighed on the quarter’s results. Put simply, everyone is starting to rep

#WCTCS9 The first half made money from the market and lost it through lack of discipline | My WCTC S9 Review and Second-Half Plan

First Half: Three Takeaways and One Painful Loss

Takeaway One: The multi-asset format forced me to look beyond the BTC chart. This competition covers spot, ETFs, stocks, futures, and TradFi. For the first time, I watched the rhythm of AI stocks and Korean stocks alongside crypto—and realized that risk appetite moves along the same line, just with different time lags.

Takeaway Two: The leaderboard made me face my weaknesses. I’m not quick on the trigger, and I’m n

$BTC Morning Update 🌄
We can see that price action has broken down from the green rising broadening wedge.
Price action has now fallen to test the first target of the breakdown at $73,766.
If price can't get back above the 1, 7, and 15-min 200MA's we will likely go test the bottom of the orange trendline.
Remember this move to the bottom orange trendline could be a faster play.
I'll be looking to enter a long near the bottom trendline.
Ill protect it with a tight stop.
