This page tracks perpetual futures data for ETF contracts including volume, open interest, funding rates, and liquidation flows. ETF perps on decentralized exchanges mirror the exposure of their underlying indices and commodities, making the data directly comparable to index and commodity perp metrics. Open interest in SPY and QQQ perps reflects retail and institutional equity positioning that tends to correlate with crypto market conditions, particularly during tech-driven rallies where BTC and NDX move together. GLD perp funding rates and open interest serve as a proxy for precious metals demand that complements the XAUUSD commodity perp data.

Trading Tips for VanEck Gold Miners ETF Perps
GDX provides leveraged gold exposure through equity — when gold rises 5%, GDX often moves 10-15%. Use GDX/XAUUSD relative positioning to express views on mining profitability versus spot metal price.
