DRIFT spot vs perp volume FAQ

What is DRIFT's spot vs perp volume ratio?

DRIFT's perpetual futures quote volume divided by its spot quote volume over the same period, on the exchanges where both markets are recorded here (Binance and Bybit, same quote currency).

Is a high DRIFT perp/spot ratio bearish?

Not by itself. It means more perpetual futures traded notional per dollar of spot traded notional. The same funds can turn over repeatedly: this does not count unique traders or measure their leverage, cash inflows or directional conviction. Next, inspect DRIFT CVD to see which side initiated trades, or compare basis and funding.

Why can the chart differ from the 24h figures?

The figures at the top are the exchanges' own rolling 24-hour volumes, live. The chart is built from the 1-minute bars this site records, per hour or per day, so it has gaps where recording stopped and its buckets start on the hour or at midnight UTC.
