What Are AXS Perpetual Futures?
AXS perpetual futures are leveraged derivatives that allow traders to take long or short positions on Axie Infinity (AXS) without owning the underlying token.
Long AXS Perpetual: Profit when AXS price rises.
Short AXS Perpetual: Profit when AXS price falls.
Unlike traditional futures, AXS perpetuals never expire. Instead, they use hourly funding payments exchanged between long and short traders to maintain alignment with AXS’s global spot price.

AXS Perpetual Funding Rate Explained
PowerTrade’s AXS funding rate ensures perpetual contract prices stay aligned with the AXS/USDC index, derived from CoinGecko.
Funding Rate Formula:
Where:
P (Premium Index): Difference between the market price and index price.
I (Interest Rate): 0.01% per 8 hours (applied hourly).
Clamp: Restricts adjustments to ±0.05% to prevent extreme funding volatility.
Funding is applied hourly and only affects positions open at settlement.
Close your position before funding time to avoid paying funding fees.
The AXS/USDC Index represents the fair global market value of Axie Infinity (AXS) against USDC, using aggregated spot data from CoinGecko’s composite index feed.
The index provides the reference rate for AXS perpetual contracts, ensuring mark prices and liquidation levels reflect the global market — not the movements of any single exchange.
This guarantees fairness, transparency, and price consistency.
Index Construction
CoinGecko’s composite index aggregates AXS/USDC (and equivalent) spot prices from top exchanges and weights them based on:
24-hour trading volume and liquidity depth
Exchange reliability and uptime
Price consistency relative to the global average
Outlier and stale data are automatically removed.
PowerTrade integrates this verified CoinGecko feed to maintain transparent mark pricing.
Fallback Mechanism
If CoinGecko’s feed becomes unavailable, PowerTrade switches to an internal pre-market index based on bid/ask data from the AXS perpetual order book.
This ensures continuous and accurate mark pricing even during external data disruptions.
Mark Price and Liquidation Logic
PowerTrade uses a mark price mechanism that smooths volatility and ensures fair liquidation calculations:
The EMA (Exponential Moving Average) is calculated over a 15-second period to reduce short-term price noise.
This helps prevent unnecessary liquidations during volatile conditions.
PnL Formulas:
Long AXS:PnL = Position Size × (Mark Price – Entry Price)
Short AXS:PnL = Position Size × (Entry Price – Mark Price)
The insurance fund and auto-deleveraging (ADL) system maintain platform stability.
