Basic Binance Premium Index

A premium index indicator for Binance futures.

The premium index is based on the difference in price between the perpetual swap contract last price and the price of a volume weighted spot index.

Simply put: it shows you for each coin whether the spot market is trading higher than the Binance perpetual or not.

If future price is higher than spot in a rally, the rally isn't backed by real buys (spot) but by dumb perpetual longs which can indicate bearish PA. If spot price is higher than futures in a rally, the upside is backed by real money (spot) which can indicate bullish PA.

To calculate the premium, I simply took (futures_price/vwap(spot_price)-1)*100

Notas de prensa:

fixed typo on BNB, ADA, and Doge pairs so that the perp contracts were perp and not spot.

Notas de prensa:

changed BTC, ETH and LTC perpetual futures pairs to their respective USDT trading pairs instead of USD trading pairs
