Last price is one trade

It can move sharply on a shallow venue.

Index combines spot references

Constituents and outlier handling affect the result.

Mark may drive liquidation calculations

It is not necessarily executable, so check the live order book separately.

Preguntas frecuentes

Can I trade directly at the mark price?

Usually it is a calculation reference; executions occur against the order book.
