The price spread pays, funding is against you. Kraken Futures is 0.088% dearer against KuCoin than usual: you sell high and buy low (spread +0.017% now, against its 7-day average of −0.071%): +$9 on $10k if it goes back. Holding the pair costs −$23 a day in funding at the current rate, which eats that in about 9 hours. Mind the row above: over the last 7 days funding on this pair paid +0.356%, so the current rate has only just turned against you. The two prices were read 52 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 0.356% in total (about 18.6% 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.
