The price spread pays, funding is against you. Kraken Futures is 0.084% dearer against MEXC than usual: you sell high and buy low (spread +0.104% now, against its 7-day average of +0.020%): +$8 on $10k if it goes back. Holding the pair costs −$25 a day in funding at the current rate, which eats that in about 8 hours. Mind the row above: over the last 7 days funding on this pair paid +0.361%, so the current rate has only just turned against you. The two prices were read 51 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 0.361% in total (about 18.8% 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.
