Alibaba (BABA) perpetual futures on Hyperliquid's HIP-3 dexes (US stocks): live mark vs oracle, hourly funding, open interest against the deployer's cap, and volume spikes.
BABA trades on 1 HIP-3 dex; on trade.xyz the mark is 98.082 against an oracle of 98.020, a basis of +6.3 bps. Funding is 0.00126% per hour (11.1% APR), so longs pay shorts. Open interest is $5.94M, with trade.xyz at 24% of its $50.00M cap, and $2.11M traded in 24 hours.

Funding is Hyperliquid's hourly rate (APR = hourly × 24 × 365). Basis is the mark against the deployer's oracle; while the US market is closed the oracle is maintained by the deployer, not a live exchange price. Trade links go to the exchange and may be referral links.

BABA perp FAQ
What is the BABA price on Hyperliquid?
The BABA perp mark is 98.082 on trade.xyz, against an oracle of 98.020. The perp mark is not the exchange-listed underlying price: it is the price of the perpetual contract, and can differ from the underlying. Missing values appear as a dash.
What is the BABA funding rate on Hyperliquid?
0.00126% per hour on trade.xyz right now (11.1% APR), so longs pay shorts. Hyperliquid settles funding every hour, so multiply by 8 to compare with an 8-hour rate on Binance or Bybit (0.0101% per 8h).
How closely does the BABA perp track the underlying?
The trade.xyz mark is 98.082 against an oracle of 98.020, a basis of +6.3 bps. Hyperliquid Guide measured 30-day tracking error (the standard deviation of the basis) across 101 HIP-3 markets: from 2.0 bps (SP500) to 43.3 bps (BIRD), with a median of 7.6 bps (source). The US market is closed right now, so the deployer maintains the oracle until the open.
Can I trade BABA when the US market is closed?
Yes. The perp trades 24/7 on Hyperliquid, but the US session runs 09:30 to 16:00 New York time on trading days; outside it the oracle is set by the deployer and prices can gap at the open. Status now: US market closed · after hours.
