Live market pages
What these pages are
Each one reads a perpetual market from the exchange at the moment you load it, and shows the price, the best bid and ask, the spread in basis points, the funding rate, open interest and 24 hour volume. Nothing is written into the page in advance. If the exchange does not answer, the page says so and shows no figures at all, because a cached number under a live heading is worse than an empty space.
Why a perpetual price and not a spot price
A perpetual contract has no expiry, so it can be held indefinitely, and a funding payment between longs and shorts is what keeps it close to spot. That makes these pages more informative than a plain price feed: alongside what the asset costs, they show what it costs to hold a position in it, which is the number most price pages leave out.
Reading a figure from one of these pages
Every page carries the time it read the market, in the text rather than only in a caption. A price quoted from here is accurate as of that timestamp and stale afterwards, which matters if you are copying it somewhere or if something else is reading the page on your behalf. The pages refresh at most every five minutes, so a crawler is never driving live requests at the exchange.
Each page reads the exchange when you open it: price, best bid and ask, spread, funding and open interest. Not a snapshot written earlier, and not a description of a market. The market.
