Trading Hours: All TradFi markets are available for trading 24/7, including weekends and public holidays. However, please note that spreads on these markets may be significantly wider during these periods.​

Fees: Currently, TradFi markets have the same trading fees as crypto markets; however, this may be revised in the future.

Pricing Data: ​For index and mark prices on TradFi markets, during trading hours Extended relies on the Stork Oraclearrow-up-right for equities and the Pragma Oraclearrow-up-right for other TradFi assets. During non-trading hours (when TradFi markets are closed), both index and mark price are calculated as:

Last Oracle Price * (1 - Impact Mid Price Weight) + Impact Mid Price * Impact Mid Price Weight, where:

  • Impact Mid Price = 1-hour EMA impact mid price

  • Impact Mid Price Weight = min(0.1 + 0.8 * seconds since last Oracle Price / (48 * 60 * 60), 0.9)

The maximum change of index and mark price versus the last known oracle price is capped by ± 1 / (2 * max market leverage).

Funding Payments: The logic remains the same as in crypto markets, except that the Funding Rate is calculated as Average Premium / 8. The funding rate for all TradFi assets is currently capped at ~0.011% per hour (~100% annualised).

Trading Rules: Minimum Trade Size, Minimum Change in Trade Size and Minimum Price Change.
