KuCoin Futures Funding Rate Upgrades Plan
Dear KuCoin Futures Users,
In order to improve the user trading experience, KuCoin Futures has upgraded the funding rate calculation, the major changes are shown below:
The Moving Average operates on the total data of the current cycle, calculated once per minute, with a total of 8*60=480 calculations each cycle. If within a cycle, the calculated value is the Predicted Funding Rate; if at the end of a cycle, the calculated value is the Funding Rate used for settlement.
The specific parameters for A and B above are as follows (subject to margin rates, and adjustments might be made by officials under extreme market conditions):
Funding Rate Cap = (Initial Margin IM - Maintenance Margin MM) × 0.75
Funding Rate Floor = (Initial Margin IM - Maintenance Margin MM) × (-0.75)
For instance: if the Contract Initial Margin is 1%, and the Maintenance Margin is 0.5%, the maximum funding rate will be (1%-0.5%) ×75% = 0.375%. If the calculated Funding Rate F' > 0.375%, then the final Funding Rate F = 0.375%.
