Consistently negative funding while price strength remains intact is a signal worth watching.
What it means:
๐ Shorts are paying longs
๐ Market sentiment remains bearish despite relative strength
โ ๏ธ Crowded shorts can become fuel for a squeeze
When strong coins continue holding structure while traders aggressively bet against them, the move higher often becomes more violent if momentum returns. Negative funding alone is not a buy signal, but persistent negative funding on leading assets can indicate positioning imbalance. Negative funding generally means short positioning is dominant, with shorts paying longs.

๐ถ Strong asset + rising OI + negative funding = even stronger setup
๐ถ Never use funding alone โ combine with liquidity, OI, and price structure
