Funding is a mechanism that keeps the price of a perpetual contract close to the spot price.
It works like this:
- If the contract price is higher than the spot price, longs pay shorts (positive funding).
- If the contract price is lower than the spot price, shorts pay longs (negative funding).
These payments happen directly between traders and Delta Exchange does not charge any fees on funding. This system helps balance prices naturally.
