Funding pays, the price is against you. Lighter is 0.161% cheaper against BloFin than usual: you would sell low and buy high (spread −0.004% now, against its 7-day average of +0.158%). If the spread goes back, that is −$16 on $10k: about 2.9 days of funding at the current rate (+$6 a day). At the pace of the last 7 days (+0.076% in total) that is about 15 days. The two prices were read 90 seconds apart, so part of this spread may be the market moving, not a spread.
The current funding rate is far above what this pair has been paying: over the last 7 days it paid 0.076% in total (about 4.0% 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.
