What is this tool?

Funding Screener ranks Binance USDT perpetual futures by their latest 8-hour funding rate. Positive funding means longs pay shorts; negative funding means shorts pay longs.

The table is sorted by funding rate — highest positive at the top (crowded longs), most negative at the bottom (crowded shorts).

Filter by Longs pay, Shorts pay, Extreme or Neutral to focus on carry opportunities or mean-reversion setups.

How to read the results

Filter by Longs pay, Shorts pay, Extreme or Neutral to focus on carry opportunities or mean-reversion setups.

Annualized % extrapolates the current 8h rate over a full year (×3 ×365) — useful for comparing carry, not a guaranteed return.

Avg 24h averages the last three 8h funding intervals when history is available — smoother than a single tick.

Premium shows mark vs index price — persistent positive premium often aligns with positive funding.

Frequently asked questions

How reliable are the signals from this tool?
Treat every reading as a hypothesis. Strong setups usually agree across multiple rows, timeframes or linked PEPS engines — not from a single highlighted value alone.
Is this tool suitable for beginners?
Yes. Start with one symbol or one ranked row, read the labels and confirmation panels, then open linked tools before sizing a live position.
How often is the data updated?
Refresh cadence depends on the engine — many trading scanners update every few minutes; on-chain and mining feeds may run on hourly timers. Check the Updated timestamp on the tool page.
