What it cost to hold a perpetual on 18 September 2026, and where the volume was.
Funding cost the most on OKX and the least on Bybit, a gap of 0.0111 percentage points per interval. Carrying the same position for a day cost 0.033% more of notional on the expensive side — 0.33% of margin at 10x.
78 of 790 listed perpetuals cleared $5M of 24-hour volume — 9.9% of the board. Outside that set, spreads widen and a market order costs more than the fee schedule suggests.
The widest funding on the board was AVAUSDT at -0.3210% per interval, paid by shorts — 351% annualised if it were to hold, which it will not.
Bitcoin closed the day at 76,362.70, -0.01% against the previous capture.
Fear & Greed sat at 56 (Greed), a middling reading.
