carry

Harvest perp funding by holding the paid side — hedged and risk-gated.

commands

deliverator ctx --coin ETH --json # funding rate · OI · premium

deliverator info predictedFundings --json # forward funding

Funding carry harvests the periodic funding payment on perps: when funding is positive, shorts get paid by longs (and vice-versa). Hold the paid side, manage the directional risk, and collect the stream.

A recipe for the loop, not a one-shot command

There’s no arb scan button — and that’s the point. The agent computes the signal from primitives Deliverator already exposes:

  • ctx — live funding rate, open interest, and premium per asset.
  • info predictedFundings / fundingHistory — forward and historical funding.
  • funding — what you’ve actually been paid.

The agent ranks assets by carry, sizes the position against the same risk caps, and (ideally) hedges the delta. The loop’s risk monitor watches liquidation distance the whole time — funding income means nothing if a wick liquidates the leg.

Carry looks free until it isn’t. Size it like any other leveraged position and let the hard caps do their job.
