Contract mechanics
What it tracks
iShares MSCI Japan ETF — indices. This is a perpetual contract that references that price; it is not the underlying security, and it never expires or rolls.
Trading hours
Follows the CME futures session: Sunday 18:00 to Friday 17:00 New York time, with a one-hour break every day at 17:00, and CME holidays. The contract itself trades on Hyperliquid 24/7.
When the real market is closed
The oracle does not freeze. With no external price it starts from the last one and then drifts with Hyperliquid’s own book — a 30-minute exponential average of the gap between the impact bid/ask and the oracle — and snaps back to the real price on the first tick after the market reopens. Funding is charged against that oracle throughout, which is why the jump at each reopening is worth measuring.
