Getting Started
A step-by-step guide for your first time using Funding History Search.
Step 1. Open the Application
Navigate to funding-search.xyz. The interface is organized into three panels:
| Panel | Location | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Scanner & Results | Left | Scan configuration and the list of discovered tickers |
| Ticker Details | Center | Chart, metrics, and rate table for the selected ticker |
| Portfolio | Right | Position tracking and PnL |

Step 2. Configure the Scan
In the left panel:
- Select a period — click one of the presets:
1d,7d,14d,30d - Select exchanges — check at least 2 exchanges, or click
Select All - Optionally: configure a strategy
Minimum 2 Exchanges Required
To calculate an arbitrage spread you need at least 2 exchanges. The spread is the difference between the highest and lowest funding rate across your selection.
Step 3. Run the Scan
Click the Scan Market button. The scanner will:
- Fetch historical funding data for all available tickers
- Display a progress bar and elapsed time
- Sort results by spread (best opportunities at the top)
Result Caching
Scan results are saved to localStorage. If you reopen the page with the same parameters, data will load instantly without another server request.
Step 4. Explore the Results
Each row in the results list shows:
- Symbol — the ticker name (e.g., ETHUSDT)
- Spread % — the funding rate difference between the best exchanges over the selected period
- Best Pair — the exchange pair offering the maximum spread (long exchange / short exchange)
Click any ticker to open its detailed analysis in the center panel.
Step 5. Add a Position to the Portfolio
When you find a suitable ticker:
- Click + Portfolio in the center panel
- Fill in the exchanges, amount, and entry date
