The culprit could be the Futures Funding Fees – and they are sneakier than you think! Let's discuss everything 👇

🔍 The Truth Behind Fees:
That mysterious fee? It's not a Binance fee.
Actually, it is a fee paid between traders to ensure that Futures prices stay close to Spot prices.
📅 You are charged every 8 hours — at 07:00, 15:00, and 23:00 WIB ⏰

💥 Why Fees Can Spike:
1️⃣ When the market is flooded with long positions, they pay the short positions
2️⃣ A large gap between Futures and Spot prices = higher fees
3️⃣ On hot coins like $PEPE, $SUI, $TAO, rates can be very high 🔥

⚠️ Warning of Common Mistakes:
Holding large positions during multiple funding windows?
Even if your trade is profitable, you can still lose money due to high fees!
Many beginners think their TA has failed — but it’s actually the fees draining their PnL 💸

✅ Pro Steps to Manage Funding Fees:
🔹 Always check funding rates before opening positions
🔹 Avoid over-leveraging on coins with high fees
🔹 Do scalping trades early and close before the funding time
🔹 If the fees are too high, consider reversing your bias (only if it aligns with your analysis)
🔹 Join minority positions to EARN fees instead of paying them 💰
