Price spread, last 7 days—no price history on both exchanges yet

Together, before fees—needs both histories

Both sides work against this trade now: funding costs −$2 a day on $10k at the current rate, and Injective is 4.121% cheaper against KuCoin than usual: you would sell low and buy high (−$412 if the spread goes back to zero (this spread has no 7-day history yet)). Swap the legs. Mind the row above: over the last 7 days funding on this pair paid +1.032%, so the current rate has only just turned against you. The two prices were read 100 seconds apart, so part of this spread may be the market moving, not a spread.
