Market Research / Derivatives

Institutional derivatives intelligence across every venue

Monitor funding rates, open interest, and liquidation clusters in real time. Evaluate market positioning, detect crowded trades, and analyze regime shifts from a single workspace.

Every perpetual, in detail

Open any contract on any venue for its mark and index price, volume, open interest, funding and liquidations, then the history behind them. The full record behind a row in a perps table, on the surface you found the row on.

  • Full contract detail

    Mark and index price, volume, open interest, and leverage

  • Open interest history

    How the position on a market has built or unwound

  • Funding rate history

    Every print on the contract’s own schedule, and what holding it has cost

Cross-venue funding rate analytics

Compare real-time perpetual funding rates across exchanges to evaluate carry trade opportunities and identify market positioning skews before unwinding occurs.

  • Real-time funding rates

    Monitor live funding rates across all tracked exchanges and trading pairs

  • Carry trade evaluation

    Identify yield dislocations and funding rate outliers across venues

  • Cross-venue normalization

    Compare identical perpetual contracts across exchanges on a standardized basis

Evaluate market positioning through open interest

Compare open interest trends across venues and contracts to measure leverage concentration and determine whether capital is entering or exiting trades.

  • Open interest trends

    Track real-time capital accumulation across perpetual and futures markets

  • Cross-pair positioning

    Chart open interest alongside price action to evaluate conviction levels

  • Leverage concentration

    Identify overcrowded trades before trend reversals occur

Track forced liquidation flow in real time

Monitor real-time liquidation events to identify where forced selling or buying is concentrated across global order books.

  • Liquidation flow

    Track live forced liquidations across major venues as they execute

  • Cluster identification

    Map stacked liquidation levels to locate potential price cascade zones

  • Granular contract detail

    Drill down into individual perpetual and futures contracts for full market context

Read implied volatility and skew

Funding and open interest describe positioning in linear products. Options carry a forecast neither states: how far the market expects an asset to travel, and whether it is paying more for downside protection than for upside.

  • Volatility term structure

    Compare implied volatility across expiries to identify whether near-dated contracts are pricing an imminent event

  • Strike skew

    Evaluate how implied volatility varies by strike to determine what the market charges for protection versus participation

  • Risk reversals

    Track the 25-delta risk reversal to quantify directional positioning bias in a single figure

“Before Seerian, we were paying for separate analytics platforms and manually stitching the data together in internal dashboards. Now, our entire research stack is in one place, natively integrated, and perfectly mapped to our live portfolio. It completely changed how we evaluate our positions.”

Managing PartnerCrypto Fund

“Seeing derivative flows, funding rates, and liquidity levels directly alongside our active wallet positions changed how we manage downside risk. We don’t just look at isolated market data anymore; we see exactly how it impacts our specific holdings in real time.”

“The ability to have our entire analyst team working out of the same shared watchlists and project folders has eliminated the scattered research we used to share over chat. Everyone is finally looking at the same data, at the same time.”
