Bitmex BTC Perpetual PremiumThis script tracks the premium of the Bitcoin Perpetual futures at Bimex exchange relative to 3 different reference prices.
The difference between this script and already published scripts is that it tracks the premium relative to 3 different reference prices. This tends to produce slightly different results.
This script is also open source, so you can verify the calculations, or use it as a basis for your own script.
The 3 plots uses the following reference prices:
Blue Area:
Bitmex Index price, ticker: BITMEX:XBT
Red line:
Bitmex Perpetual Premium, ticker XBTUSDPI
(This one is not used as reference, but simply plots the ticker*100)
Orange line:
The reference here is a price calculated by the tickers in trading view based on the Bitmex indices with weighing as follows:
Bitstamp:28,81%
Bittrex:5,5%
Coinbase: 38,07%
Gemini: 7,34%
Kraken: 20,28
Please note that Bitmex changes the bases of its indices regularly. Bitmex might also "rule out" on of these exchanges if there is a short term problem.
FTX vs BitMex BTC Perp PremiumThis script compares FTX BTC/PERP (BTC perpetual futures contract) price to Binance BTC/USDT spot and colors it red. It also plots Bitmex's BTC perpetual futures compared to Binance spot and colors it blue.
FTX = red
Bitmex = blue
Now you can easily see that you can get a 1% discount on FTX perpetuals when it is tanking. This tells you that you can set your limit buy orders extra low if you like to catch crashes. Also, you can see what your average trader on each platform is willing to pay above or below the spot premium. In general you want to do the opposite of what the average trading is doing on these exchanges unless you're in the main bull or mania phase of the Bitcoin cycle.
If you want to use Bitstamp or your favorite exchange it can be changed in the settings. Let me know if you find any settings that work well for you.
May you profit and enjoy! :)
