Both sides work against this trade now: funding costs −$1 a day on $10k at the current rate, and KuCoin is 0.095% cheaper against BloFin than usual: you would sell low and buy high (−$9 if the spread goes back to its 7-day average of −0.015%). Swap the legs. Mind the row above: over the last 7 days funding on this pair paid +0.059%, so the current rate has only just turned against you. The two prices were read 80 seconds apart, so part of this spread may be the market moving, not a spread.
