Market context

WTI Crude Oil futures are currently trading near $69.54 per barrel, having fallen sharply after a US–Iran peace deal unwound wartime risk premiums, with prices now roughly 40% below their conflict peak[2][3]. This market assigns a 0% probability to any outcome beyond the listed threshold, yet recent history shows WTI spiking above $100 in early 2026 amid production outages exceeding 11 million barrels per day and steep global inventory draws[1]. The current consensus of 100% for both “↑ $90” and “↓ $90” suggests traders expect volatility but doubt sustained breaches, contrasting with the 2026 spike where inventory levels were critically low and demand remained firm[1][2].

Traders must watch the next EIA inventory report, gasoline demand trends, and any escalation in Middle East tensions that could reignite supply fears[2]. Gasoline demand remains firm at 8.8 million barrels per day despite a modest inventory build, while total US stocks sit at 412 million barrels—well below the five-year average[2]. A recent Forbes report confirms WTI is up 21.11% year to date, indicating underlying strength despite the recent sell-off[3]. Any surprise in the upcoming EIA data or a reversal in the peace deal could act as a catalyst for a sharp price move, potentially pushing WTI beyond current thresholds in June 2026[2][3].

Methodology

Methodologically we separate two layers: the live probability (Polymarket mid-price) and the platform attributes (fee, KYC, settlement currency, payment rails). The odds column is filled only where we have clean data — that avoids the made-up numbers that get a network demoted when search engines cross-check against the source venue.

Resolution & payout

Polymarket-based markets settle through the UMA Optimistic Oracle on Polygon. A proposer submits the outcome, a two-hour challenge window opens, and unchallenged proposals finalise the resolution. Payouts settle automatically in USDC the moment the result is final — no bookmaker, no delay.

Kalshi-based markets settle in USD via the CFTC-regulated clearinghouse. Betfair Exchange settles in GBP/EUR net of commission. Manifold is play-money and does not pay out real funds.
