Perps parameters

Key Pool Parameters

GenieDEX perpetual pools are configured with 3 critical parameters that control funding rates, price adjustments, and position dynamics:

1️⃣ Adjust Period

Set to: 1 hour

Function: Minimum time interval between price reference adjustments

  • Purpose: Prevents excessive price reference volatility
  • Impact: Smoother funding rate transitions and position stability

2️⃣ Adjust Rate

Set to: 5%

Function: Speed of price reference adaptation to oracle price

  • Purpose: Balances responsiveness vs stability in price tracking
  • Impact: Higher rates = faster oracle price adaptation

3️⃣ Half-time

Set to: 7 Days

Function: Funding rate decay parameter for position rebalancing

  • Purpose: Controls how quickly funding rates equilibrate positions
  • Impact: Shorter half-time = more aggressive funding adjustments
