Does a positive funding rate mean that everyone going long is making money?

In the crypto derivatives market, there is one metric traders often use to gauge market sentiment: the funding rate.

When the funding rate turns positive, some people believe the market is bullish and longs are making money; when it turns negative, others believe the market is bearish and shorts have the advantage.

But this interpretation is not entirely correct.

The funding rate reflects the periodic payment mechanism between longs and shorts in a specific perpetual contract. It does not reflect the profits of all

The moment for Wall Street’s old money to hunt may really be coming
The Democratic Party is best at financial warfare; to put it bluntly, it feeds on corpses
Wall Street’s old money, represented by Buffett, may now be waiting for the funding of the tech upstarts who rose to prominence in recent years to run dry and trigger a blowup
This playbook mainly has two fronts: raising financing costs on the financial side and blocking projects on the administrative side
First front: financial predation

Taiwan stocks fell for 7 straight days this week. On Friday, they were down nearly 9% at one point intraday, marking the biggest intraday point drop in history, before closing at 39,701 points and barely reclaiming the 250-day moving average. With markets closed over the weekend and no price action to watch, it’s a good time to explain how to trade Taiwan stocks on Gate. #Gate上线台股交易
First, the most important point: You don’t need to open a separate Taiwan stock account or exchange money into New Taiwan dollars yourself. You can buy directly with USDT in your Gate stock account. Prices, portfo

: How Can You Turn Your Stock Market Insights Into Valuable Discussions?

What Makes a Stock Worth Talking About?

A stock does not become interesting simply because its price is rising. Sometimes, a company with a falling share price has stronger long-term potential than one making new highs. The real question is whether its business, financial performance, future plans, and market position support its current valuation.

That is the idea behind Gate Square's Stock Talk Season: encouraging people to share meaningful stock market opinions, explain their research, and learn f

Where Is the Authority to Pause Trading Hidden? Finding Clues in Contract Structure

In the Web3 world, many people focus on token prices, holder counts, and whether a contract has passed an audit, but overlook a question that directly affects how assets can be used:

What can an address do if it has the authority to pause trading, freeze accounts, or restrict transfers?

Some tokens do include these mechanisms. They may be used to respond to security incidents, restrict malicious addresses, or meet specific business requirements, but they can also pose risks such as excessive concentration of

What is the difference between isolated and cross margin? Why can the same market movement have completely different effects on an account?

In crypto derivatives trading, many people focus on price, leverage, and liquidation price, but overlook an equally important question: whether they are using isolated or cross margin.

These two modes determine how margin is allocated and how account funds may be affected when an individual position incurs a loss.

First, what is isolated margin?

In isolated mode, the margin allocated to a position is managed relatively independently. The position's mar

The contract source code has been verified. Why does it still need further checks?

In Web3 projects, many people see “Contract Source Code Verified” displayed on a blockchain explorer and assume the contract is transparent enough, or even that it has passed a security review.

But there is an easily overlooked distinction:

Source code verification mainly helps us check whether the public source code matches the deployed bytecode. It is not the same as a security audit, nor does it mean the contract has no vulnerabilities.

If “source code verified” is taken to mean “the contract is safe,” pe

$XAU LONG SETUP — GOLD BUYERS FIGHTING BACK!

$XAU is recovering from 4,025, with higher lows forming as buyers push toward the key 4,088 resistance zone. Another bullish move could be developing!

Entry: 4,082.09
SL: 4,062.00

TP1: 4,095.00
TP2: 4,110.00
TP3: 4,126.40
Final Target: 4,151.77

Gold is showing renewed buying pressure after defending the 4,025 support. A sustained breakout above 4,088.20 could strengthen the recovery and open the door toward 4,126. However, the broader structure still needs confirmation of a bullish reversal.

U.S. stocks sold off sharply on Thursday, November 5 (UTC). The Nasdaq closed down around 5.5%, entering correction territory, while the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index plunged roughly 12%, with chip stocks including $NVDA and $AMD posting steep losses. Beyond profit-taking, investors are growing concerned about the pace of AI data center construction, capital spending, and future returns on investment. The key question now is whether the AI sector’s lofty growth expectations need to be repriced. Where do you think the next opportunities will emerge: chip stocks, tech giants, or other sectors?
