Both sides work against this trade now: funding costs −$8 a day on $10k at the current rate, and tradeXYZ is 0.022% cheaper against OKX than usual: you would sell low and buy high (−$2 if the spread goes back to its 7-day average of −0.098%). Swap the legs.

The current funding rate is far above what this pair has been paying: over the last 7 days it paid 0.002% in total (about 0.1% a year). A funding rate is set anew for every payment. In the chart: green and red are payments made, yellow is the current rate, not paid yet.
