Q: What is AUDCHF on the Basis Points platform?
A: AUDCHF is the USDT-margined perpetual future on Aussie / Swiss Franc, running on the same matching engine, blended mark-price feed, funding engine and cross-margin risk model as every other instrument on the venue. No expiry date; the perpetual is anchored to spot via funding payments that settle every 24 hours at 22:00 UTC between longs and shorts. Tick size, leverage cap, funding cap and insurance-fund weighting are configurable per operator brand.
Q: How is the AUDCHF mark price computed?
A: Blended from at least three independent upstream sources with median filtering and outlier rejection, updated sub-second on the WebSocket feed. Rate-limited so a single spiking upstream cannot cascade liquidations across the book. See the mark-price section of the matching-engine architecture write-up for how the feed handles stress events.
Q: How does the funding rate on AUDCHF settle?
A: Funding on AUDCHF settles every 24 hours at 22:00 UTC between longs and shorts (aligned with the forex weekly session boundary). Positive funding means longs pay shorts (the perpetual is trading at a premium to the index); negative funding means shorts pay longs. The live rate is shown above.
Q: What are AUDCHF trading hours?
A: AUDCHF follows the global forex session — Sunday 22:00 UTC open through Friday 22:00 UTC close. The underlying interbank market closes over the weekend, and the platform surfaces "Market Closed" during the window. Funding settles once per day at 22:00 UTC, aligned with the session boundary.
