Getting Started
Funding rate arbitrage across perpetual DEXs. Delta-neutral positions that earn yield regardless of price direction.
The idea in 30 seconds
Perp DEXs charge funding rates. Different DEXs charge different rates for the same asset. You go long where funding is cheap, short where it's expensive, and pocket the spread.
Price goes up? Doesn't matter. Price goes down? Doesn't matter. Your positions cancel each other out. You collect funding around the clock, hourly on many venues.
That's delta-neutral funding rate arbitrage. ProFunding finds those spreads and lets you execute both legs in one click.
Quick start
- Browse the Dashboard. Opportunities are sorted by APR. Switch to the Smart tab for a composite score that factors in stability, liquidity, and trend
- Backtest any pair. Click a row to see how the spread performed over the last 1-30 days
- Connect wallets on the Trade page for both DEXs
- Execute. ProFunding opens long and short simultaneously
- Monitor. Real-time PnL updates. Close when the spread narrows
What kind of returns?
Typical spreads: 50-200%+ net APR. Active traders see 1-4% ROI per week.
$1,000 deployed across a few pairs? $40-160/month in funding income, depending on market conditions.
Big APR spikes look great but they don't last. The real money comes from stable pairs you can rotate between. Use the backtest to check how long a spread actually holds before you enter.
The risks
This isn't risk-free. Know what can hurt you:
- Short squeezes and price spikes. A sudden wick can liquidate one leg before funding covers your margin
- Funding flips. The spread reverses and you're now paying instead of earning
- Slippage. Wide spreads on entry/exit eat into your profit
ProFunding gives you the tools to manage these: real orderbook depth, spread risk analysis, backtest history, and position monitoring with auto-close.
