- Average KCS funding across 1 exchanges is −0.0549% — shorts are paying longs. Funding is a periodic payment between perpetual-contract sides that pins the perp price to spot; it is charged every 8 hours on most venues (some run 4-hour or 1-hour cycles). A negative rate means short positioning is dominant; sustained readings below −0.05% commonly precede a short-squeeze — a sharp move up as shorts cover at market.

- Total KCS open interest across our tracked venues is 285K (~$1.94M in USD). Open interest is the aggregate notional of unsettled futures contracts (each contract is one long + one short, counted once). Rising OI with rising price confirms fresh money entering and trend strength; rising OI with falling price points to aggressive short build-up; falling OI signals position unwinding and weakening momentum.
