# Korea

### External Coverage

Spot index values for Korea indices are available during the local cash session (9:00 AM - 3:30 PM KST, Monday through Friday).

Traditional futures quotes from institutional liquidity providers are available during the KRX derivatives trading session, including the day session (8:45 AM - 3:35 PM KST) and the night session (6:00 PM - 5:50 AM KST on the following calendar day), from Monday open through Saturday morning Korea time, subject to exchange holidays and special closes.

TradeXYZ's equity index pricing methodology combines these sources to derive external spot pricing across the full trading week. During the local cash session, external pricing is anchored to the cash index. Outside cash hours, pricing is derived from the relevant futures market and used to infer spot-equivalent index levels until the next cash session resumes.

#### KR200

Korea 200 (KR200) tracks a KRW-denominated, capitalization-weighted basket of 200 leading South Korean equities that serves as a major benchmark for Korea’s equity market. The oracle follows the basket’s native local-currency level without FX conversion. KR200 is a quanto derivative with KRW-based P\&L cash-settled in USDC.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.trade.xyz/asset-directory/equity-indices/korea.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
