Futures basis

ਸਰਲ ਭਾਸ਼ਾ ਵਿੱਚ ਅਰਥ

Futures basis is the difference between a futures price and the referenced spot or cash price.

ਇਹ ਕਿਉਂ ਲਾਭਦਾਇਕ ਹੈ

Futures basis is useful as descriptive evidence when it is compared on the same definition, source, period, unit and exact listing. It is one input to research, not a verdict.

XMarketRadar ਵਿੱਚ ਕਿੱਥੇ ਦਿਖਦਾ ਹੈ

Look for Futures basis in Futures, Option Chain, Options Screener and derivative study tables for a selected underlying and contract.

ਗਣਨਾ ਜਾਂ ਸਰੋਤ

Subtract the referenced cash/spot price from the comparable futures price: basis = futures − spot. Use synchronized observations and matching units.

ਇਨਪੁੱਟ, ਮਿਆਦ ਅਤੇ ਇਕਾਈ

Read the disclosed inputs or source, observation period, bar interval, unit, native currency and scale. A value without its source and as-of context is incomplete; unlike units must not be combined.

ਵਿਹਾਰਕ ਉਦਾਹਰਨ

Illustrative only: If the comparable futures price is ₹2,025 and spot is ₹2,000, basis is +₹25. Unsynchronized quotes can make this comparison misleading.

ਉੱਚ ਅਤੇ ਘੱਟ ਦਾ ਅਰਥ

A higher or lower Futures basis value is descriptive, not automatically good or bad. Meaning depends on the instrument, comparison period, method and related evidence.

ਧਨਾਤਮਕ, ਰਿਣਾਤਮਕ ਅਤੇ ਅਸਲ ਸਿਫ਼ਰ

Positive and negative Futures basis values retain the definition shown here. A genuine reported or computed zero is displayed as 0 and is not the same as missing evidence.

ਕਦੋਂ ਉਪਲਬਧ ਨਹੀਂ

Unavailable (—) means Futures basis is absent, unsupported, stale under the screen's rules or not computable from verified inputs. It must never be converted to zero or a neutral signal.

ਸੀਮਾਵਾਂ ਅਤੇ ਆਮ ਗਲਤੀਆਂ

Futures basis may differ by provider definition, observation time, instrument and venue. Common mistakes are dropping units or dates, comparing unlike scopes, and treating a missing value as zero.

ਬਾਜ਼ਾਰ-ਵਿਸ਼ੇਸ਼ ਅੰਤਰ

Contract size, exercise style, expiry, settlement, price unit and trading rules vary across all supported markets. Always use the selected contract specification.
