I don't think this is correct
the future is related to the bakset
but the price update is related to bid/ask of the participants
whatever the basket of indexes does (limited to some extend with the settlement)
but the index does not necessary exhaustively drive the bid/ask...
@rleplae I was just pointing out the $BRTI is an index based on different exchanges. I'm not sure what the final exchanges will be but its a group. The CBOE index is based only on Gemini exchange (if I'm not mistaken). Right, the futures will trade at most-likely at a premium to the index. One of the difficulties with trading BTC as a tape reader is that the order flow is all mixed up on the different exchanges. Right, the futures do not have to track the index. In lower liquidity markets, you might see the futures exhibit some unique qualities that make them more difficult to trade. For example, in comparison to the spot, I will see my targets taken out in the spot/cash markets like GDAX whereas on futures often the market will stay below the limit order targets unless there is a higher probability of taking them out and moving higher. So, you'll tend to see the market hold under resistance and then jump higher. Not sure whether CME/CBOE will exhibit these same tendencies or not.
