About this projection

The Nikkei 225 implied open is derived from the front-month NIY=F futures contract using the cost-of-carry fair-value model: the futures price is discounted by the JPY risk-free rate net of expected index dividends over the remaining time to contract expiry.

The Tokyo cash session runs 9:00–15:30 local time (with a 11:30–12:30 lunch break); the projection tracks where Nikkei 225 will open when it begins. The 1σ band around the projection is sized from the VNKY 30-day implied-volatility index, and the number refreshes continuously while futures trade overnight.
