When the funding rate hits an extreme, the group starts arguing about "the opponent's position always winning"… I sound like a radio station with cross-talk, all noise. Honestly, I prefer to avoid the volatility for now: surviving and waiting for the mean reversion is more important than toughing it out. Of course, taking the opposite side is satisfying, but only if you can handle that squeeze; don’t treat "probability advantage" as a talisman.
Recently, AI Agents and automated trading have been quite popular, with narratives pushing as if they will place your orders until retirement, but no one really cares much about on-chain interactions and authorization security. If something really goes wrong, there’s no button to regret. Anyway, I’m just testing the waters with small positions; if the fee rates are too outrageous, I’ll stay out… Sometimes, not making a choice is also a choice.
