Mark & Index prices

There are two types of prices that are used in perpetual contracts.

Mark Price

The Mark Price is the price of the derivative (perpetual future) that is being calculated via our Virtual vAMM model. The price changes in a similar x*y=k manner as a standard AMM does.

Index Price

The Index Price is the price of the underlying asset that is being tracked by the perpetual contract. It is the price at which the perpetual contract is settled, and it is calculated as a weighted average of the prices from various marketplaces.
