Gap formula and worked example
Gap % = (live indicative price − perp price at the last official close) ÷ perp price at the last official close × 100.
Worked example (16:05 UTC on Oct 27, 2026): (54.47 − 54.00) ÷ 54.00 × 100 = +0.87%. The perpetual is $0.47 above its price at the last official close.
Why does this market have a weekend price?
Silver shares COMEX's weekly rhythm with gold: Friday 5:00 p.m. ET close, Sunday 6:00 p.m. ET reopen, plus a daily 5:00–6:00 p.m. ET pause on business days. Industrial demand narratives and gold-beta flows still move over the weekend even when the pit is dark.
Silver perpetuals tend to be more volatile than gold on low liquidity—weekend gaps can look exaggerated relative to the metal's daily range. Treat wide percentage moves skeptically unless they persist into Sunday evening.
Our reference close is the perpetual price at the official close timestamp, not COMEX settlement. Compare the live quote to that anchor to see whether silver is carrying a weekend premium or discount into reopen.

How to read the gap
The gap percentage compares the current indicative perpetual to the reference close at the last official session end in Eastern time. A positive gap means perps trade above that reference; negative means below. It does not tell you Monday's official open—especially for equities, cash open can differ from Sunday futures reopen. Use the sparkline for path since close, and the history table for frequency of follow-through.
Read concurrent moves across asset classes on the home board. Metals traders often cross-check silver; equity readers compare Nasdaq and S&P 500.
Session clock in Eastern time
Every countdown and close reference on this page is computed with America/New_York, including daylight saving transitions. We do not approximate UTC offsets manually. That means the Friday close anchor moves between 21:00 and 22:00 UTC depending on the season, while the labeled local time stays 4:00 p.m. or 5:00 p.m. as appropriate for the asset class.
During the official pause, liquidity on decentralized venues can thin. You may see the gap expand quickly on headlines, then compress as Sunday reopen approaches and hedgers return. The weekend high and low fields summarize hourly candle extremes since the close reference—they are descriptive, not official exchange ranges.
Using history without overfitting
The twelve-week table is a small sample. Same-direction hit rate tells you how often the reopen gap signed the same way as the pre-reopen weekend move; it is not a win rate for any strategy. Median absolute difference between weekend move and reopen gap helps you see whether Sunday open tends to mean-revert or extend. Combine with the full gap archive when you need more than a dozen rows.
If you are comparing FX against metals, remember FX reopens Sunday at 5:00 p.m. ET while COMEX-style products typically return at 6:00 p.m. ET. A synchronized global shock may show up in dollar pairs before it appears in gold's Sunday screen.
FAQ
What is the silver price on the weekend, live?
As of 16:05 UTC on Oct 27, 2026, silver (XAG/USD) is indicated at $54.47 on 24/7 perpetual futures (Hyperliquid xyz market), +0.87% vs the perp price of $54.00 at the last official close (Mon, Oct 26, 5:00 p.m. ET). Silver's official COMEX screen is closed from Friday 5:00 p.m. ET to Sunday 6:00 p.m. ET; the live weekend price is the indicative perpetual quote on this page.
How big are weekend moves in silver?
Across the last 12 weekends in our dataset, silver's perpetual moved a median of 0.27% (mean 0.51%, max 2.37%) in absolute terms from the Friday close reference to the last quote before Sunday reopen.
Does silver follow the same hours as gold?
Yes for the COMEX-style schedule modeled here: Friday 5:00 p.m. ET weekend close, Sunday 6:00 p.m. ET reopen.
Why is silver's weekend gap sometimes larger than gold's?
Lower liquidity and higher beta can amplify moves in thin markets.
Is this the LBMA silver fix?
No. This is an on-chain perpetual indicative price, not a bank fix or COMEX settlement.
How should I read the weekend high and low?
They are extremes of one-hour perpetual candles since the last official close reference—useful context, not official range data.
When does the countdown target?
The next official reopen on the COMEX-style calendar (Sunday 6:00 p.m. ET).
Are holidays included?
Not in v1; watch for exchange holiday notices separately.
Many desk traders start with a simple checklist: note Friday's official close, mark where the perpetual traded at that instant, then watch whether the live quote drifts with news or with correlated markets. If dollar FX perps strengthen while gold perps soften, that divergence may reflect relative liquidity rather than a clean macro signal—cross-check both legs on the forex weekend page.
Before Sunday reopen, compare the gap to the median absolute difference in the history table. Large gaps that are unusual versus the last quarter of weekends deserve extra skepticism: thin books exaggerate moves. After reopen, official venues re-establish their own prints; this site does not stream those feeds in v1.
Nothing here is a recommendation to trade. The venue link points to an external comparison page; trading hours follow each venue's own rules. Always read each venue's own terms and risk statements independently of this tracker.
