Funding pays, the price is against you. Kraken Futures is 0.095% cheaper against Gate than usual: you would sell low and buy high (spread +0.173% now, against its 7-day average of +0.268%). If the spread goes back, that is −$9 on $10k: about 8 hours of funding at the current rate (+$28 a day). Mind the row above: over the last 7 days funding on this pair cost −0.414%, so the current rate has only just turned in your favour.
