Both sides work for this trade now. Funding pays +$11 a day on $10k at the current rate, and Phemex is 0.089% dearer against BloFin than usual: you sell high and buy low: +$9 more if the spread goes back to its 7-day average of +0.098%. The two prices were read 59 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 0.050% in total (about 2.6% a year). A funding rate is set anew for every payment; at this rate the next one is about +$3.62 per $10,000. In the chart: green and red are payments made, yellow is the current rate, not paid yet.
