Plus in futures "trading", there's a fee to pay for funding every hour, every four hours, or every eight hours depending in the exchange. That's money taken from you, and a sort of house edge added to the exchange because any reduction to your potential profit is a reduction of your edge.
If you trade futures with no leverage, that's laughable. You should trade the spot market because you won't need to pay for funding.
You pay extra funding fee by holding your position longer but there is time for funding fee reset and market reset too. It isn't worthy to pay more fees while your risk will become bigger with time by holding your position and don't mind to close it, and wait for chance of opening a new position.
Exit the market, closing your position if it is no longer good, it can help you to save unnecessary trading and funding fee but more important it can help you reducing risk, and control your capital better. With a capital that is defended well, not loss or small loss, you will have other chances in this market to get profit and cover this small loss.
