Don't remind me again today

Futures traders, here's something crucial: Last Price vs. Mark Price aren't the same thing.



Mark Price shows you the actual fair value of your contract position. It's calculated differently from the Last Price you see flashing on the order book.

Why does this matter? Because your liquidation and unrealized PNL are based on Mark Price, not Last Price. Understanding this difference can literally save you from unexpected liquidations during volatile swings.

Most beginners ignore this distinction until it costs them. Don't be that trader.
