Ever wondered why your winning trade still ends up in red? ๐ฑ
The culprit could be Futures Funding Fees โ and theyโre sneakier than you think! Letโs break it all down ๐

๐ The Truth Behind the Fee:
That mysterious charge? Itโs not a Binance fee.
Itโs actually a fee paid between traders to ensure Futures prices stay close to Spot prices.
๐ Youโre charged every 8 hours โ at 07:00, 15:00, and 23:00 WIB โฐ

๐ฅ Why Fees Can Skyrocket:
1๏ธโฃ When the market is overloaded with longs, they pay shorts
2๏ธโฃ Big gap between Futures and Spot prices = higher fee
3๏ธโฃ On hot coins like $PEPE, $SUI, $TAO, rates can go nuts ๐ฅ

โ ๏ธ Common Mistake Alert:
Holding a large position over multiple funding windows?
Even if your trade is in profit, you could still lose money due to high fees!
Many newbies think their TA failed โ but itโs actually the fee draining their PnL ๐ธ

โ Pro-Level Moves to Manage Funding Fees:
๐น Always check funding rates before opening a position
๐น Avoid over-leveraging on high-fee coins
๐น Scalp trades early and close before funding time
๐น If the funding is too high, consider reversing your bias (only if it fits your analysis)
๐น Join the minority position to EARN the fee instead of paying it ๐ฐ
