27% increase, but the funding rate is actually negative?

METIS surged to 3.55 today, with trading volume climbing to 18 million USDT. Longs account for 64%, making it look overwhelmingly one-sided. But funding is -0.0005, which suggests many people are shorting to collect funding, or that large players are quietly hedging.

Over the past 8 hours, it has been steadily strengthening, and the last candlestick showed the strongest volume spike. This kind of divergence usually means: either shorts are being forced to liquidate, accelerating the rally, or someone is using liquidity at higher levels to distribute.

I’ll wait for the next 15-minute confirmation—if volume continues and it holds above 3.58, there is still room for a short-term move; if volume shrinks and it pulls back below 3.38, this move may be a false breakout.
