⚡ Funding: The Market Charges Crowded Positions

Funding shows which side has become too crowded in perpetual futures. Positive funding means longs are paying. Negative funding means shorts are paying.
The trap is using funding as an entry trigger. High positive funding can stay high through an entire impulse. Negative funding can stay negative while price keeps grinding lower.

📈 Positive funding

Price is pushing higher, open interest is building, and perps trade above spot. Late longs are entering with leverage.
That is a watchlist for a short, not a short entry. Entry starts to make sense after the move weakens: price loses structure, fails to hold the high, or drops while OI remains elevated.

📉 Negative funding

Shorts are building into weakness. Once price stops making new lows while OI keeps rising, the setup becomes dangerous for sellers.
A small reversal can force short covering, and the covering adds speed to the move. Chasing a short after a hard dump often means entering where the squeeze begins.

🔍 Funding needs context

Check open interest, premium index, liquidation spikes, Market Median, and the actual price reaction.
Funding shows the crowded trade. Price structure shows whether that crowd is starting to lose control.
