### What Are EOS Perpetual Futures?

**EOS perpetual futures** are leveraged derivatives that let traders take **long** or **short** positions on **EOS (EOS Network)** without owning the underlying token.

* **Long EOS Perpetual:** Profit when EOS price rises.
* **Short EOS Perpetual:** Profit when EOS price falls.

Unlike traditional futures, **EOS perpetuals never expire**. Instead, they use **hourly funding payments** between long and short traders to maintain alignment with EOS’s global spot market price.

### EOS Perpetual Funding Rate Explained

PowerTrade’s **EOS funding rate** ensures perpetual prices stay aligned with the **EOS/USDC Index**, derived from [**CoinGecko**](https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/eos).

**Funding Rate Formula:**

```
F = P + clamp(I – P, +0.05%, –0.05%)
```

Where:

* **P (Premium Index):** Difference between the perpetual and index price.
* **I (Interest Rate):** 0.01% per 8 hours (applied hourly).
* **Clamp:** Restricts funding rate movement to ±0.05% to ensure stability.

Funding is **applied hourly**, only impacting open positions at the funding timestamp.\
Positions closed beforehand **do not pay** funding fees.

### EOS/USDC Index Price Methodology

The **EOS/USDC Index Price** represents the fair global market value of EOS against USDC, calculated using **CoinGecko’s composite feed** across multiple spot markets.

📊 **Reference Source:** [EOS Network (EOS) on CoinGecko](https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/eos)

#### Purpose of the Index

The index ensures **mark prices** and **liquidation levels** reflect EOS’s **true global market average**, not isolated exchange activity.\
This provides **fairness, transparency**, and **price consistency** across all EOS perpetual contracts.

#### Index Construction

CoinGecko’s composite EOS index aggregates spot EOS/USDC prices (and equivalents) from leading global exchanges, weighting them by:

* Trading volume and liquidity depth
* Exchange uptime and reliability
* Price stability relative to the global average

Outlier and stale data are automatically excluded.\
PowerTrade integrates this verified CoinGecko feed to calculate **mark prices** and **funding rates** accurately in real time.

#### Fallback Mechanism

If CoinGecko’s feed becomes unavailable, PowerTrade automatically switches to an **internal pre-market index**, derived from **order-book bid/ask data** from the EOS perpetual market.\
This ensures continuous pricing and accurate liquidation calculations during data outages.

***

### Mark Price and Liquidation Logic

PowerTrade’s **mark price** smooths volatility and ensures fair PnL and liquidation processes:

```
Mark Price = Index Price + EMA(Market Price – Index Price)
```

* The **EMA (Exponential Moving Average)** over 15 seconds filters market noise.
* This prevents unnecessary liquidations and ensures stability during high volatility.

**PnL Formulas:**

* **Long EOS:** `PnL = Position Size × (Mark Price – Entry Price)`
* **Short EOS:** `PnL = Position Size × (Entry Price – Mark Price)`

**Liquidation Trigger:**\
`Account Balance + Unrealized PnL ≤ Maintenance Margin`

When triggered:\
1️⃣ All open orders are canceled.\
2️⃣ Positions are closed at market.\
3️⃣ The **insurance fund** and **auto-deleveraging (ADL)** mechanisms maintain system stability.
