Perpetual Funding Rate Alert

WHAT IT DOES Perpetual Funding Rate Alert watches the current perpetual trading page for the user's wallet address and token, reads the current funding rate from the perpetual contract on-chain, monitors changes in the funding rate over time, calculates the cumulative funding cost for the user's position, detects significant changes or extreme funding rates that may signal market sentiment shifts, and displays alerts with funding rate updates, cumulative cost, and recommendations when funding rates exceed configured thresholds. The tool connects to the user's wallet via window.ethereum, reads the current funding rate from the perpetual contract, calculates the hourly and cumulative funding cost based on the user's position size, tracks rate changes over time, and triggers alerts when the funding rate exceeds the configured threshold. WHERE IT RUNS The tool runs as a panel inside your browser on GMX perpetual trading pages at https://app.gmx.io/*. It works on GMX trading pages where the user has an open position. The tool connects to your real EVM wallet extension (MetaMask, WalletConnect, or any wallet injecting window.ethereum) to read on-chain data via eth_call and the ethers library loaded at runtime. No data is sent to any external server; all reads happen directly from the blockchain through your wallet provider. HOW TO USE Install the BotGentz extension, navigate to GMX, open a perpetual position, and open the Perpetual Funding Rate Alert panel. Set your funding rate alert threshold percentage (default 0.1%) — the tool will alert you when the absolute funding rate exceeds this value. Enter your position size in USD (default $10,000) — the tool uses this to calculate hourly and cumulative funding costs. Select your monitoring interval from the dropdown — 15, 30, 60, or 120 seconds. Choose your alert preference — Panel only, Browser notification, or Both. Toggle "Auto-check on page load" if you want the tool to analyze automatically when you open the panel. Click "Monitor Funding" — the tool reads the current funding rate from the perpetual contract, calculates the hourly and cumulative funding cost, tracks rate changes over time, and displays a comprehensive funding rate dashboard with cost analysis. When the funding rate exceeds the configured threshold, the tool triggers an alert with the current rate and cost. The funding monitor updates automatically at your chosen interval. Click "Refresh" to manually update the funding data, or "Reset Cumulative Cost" to reset the cumulative cost counter. MECHANISM — FUNDING RATE MONITORING WITH COST ANALYSIS AND TREND DETECTION This tool uses a funding rate monitoring engine that tracks perpetual funding rates and calculates position costs. The system first connects to window.ethereum and requests the user's wallet address. It reads the current funding rate from the perpetual contract via eth_call, using the appropriate funding rate function. The tool calculates the funding cost using the formula: Cost = |fundingRate| * positionSize. The cumulative cost is tracked over time, with each reading adding the estimated cost for the interval. The tool also tracks rate changes by comparing the current rate against the previous rate and calculating the percentage change. The urgency classification uses a multi-tier system: ALERT (|rate| ≥ threshold), WATCH (|rate| approaching threshold), or NORMAL (|rate| < threshold). Recommendations are generated based on the rate direction and magnitude, helping users understand whether they are paying or receiving funding. THE PANEL The BotGentz panel is fully draggable, allowing you to position it anywhere on your screen without obstructing the GMX interface. It includes per-site position memory, so the panel returns to your preferred location each time you visit the exchange. Snap-to-edge functionality lets you dock the panel to any side of the browser window. The panel collapses to a compact icon when not in use and expands with a single click. You can resize it to your preferred dimensions, and pressing the Escape key instantly closes the panel. All interactions are smooth and intuitive, designed to work alongside your trading workflow. PLEASE NOTE This tool requires the free BotGentz extension and a real EVM wallet extension (such as MetaMask) already installed in your browser. EVM chains only — currently supports Ethereum mainnet and compatible networks. This is a monitoring and alert tool only — it does not execute position management transactions automatically. The tool cannot guarantee that the displayed funding rate matches the exact moment of execution due to on-chain latency. It cannot account for funding rate changes between monitoring cycles. It cannot read funding data from perpetual protocols other than GMX. It cannot predict future funding rate movements or market sentiment shifts. It cannot read private wallet information or trading intentions. All blockchain reads are performed directly through your wallet provider; no data is stored or transmitted beyond your browser. Websites change their layouts and content structures regularly; while we continuously update the extraction logic, some pages may require script updates. Always verify all funding rates, position sizes, and cost calculations independently before taking any action based on the dashboard.
