$ALPACA There are still 4 days which means there are still 96 hours left before the automatic closing because the future market will be delisted.
Think about it if the price continues to rise and there are still many who hold and open short positions, they will be charged a funding fee of -2% x 96 hours = -192%
If you open a short position with a total size of 100 USDT, you will pay a funding fee of 192 USDT, that's just the fee, not including your loss from the short position.
On the other hand, if you open a long position, you will profit from the funding fee of 192 USDT plus the profit from the long position
However, the risk of going long is also very high because in an instant it can fall -50% more. Therefore, it is necessary to set a stop loss.
