This market will resolve according to the total number of notices that UKMTO (United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations) publishes on its Recent Incidents page with a publication date from October 19, 2026, through October 25, 2026 (UTC), inclusive, as displayed on that page. All notice types will count, including warnings, advisories, suspicious activity notices, and attack reports, including time-late reports of incidents that occurred before October 19, 2026 (UTC). Each notice will be counted once. Updates to, corrections of, or reissues of a previously published notice will not count as separate notices, including any subsequent notice that updates or provides additional information on an incident already reported by UKMTO. Only notices published by UKMTO will count. Maritime incidents that are not the subject of a UKMTO notice published within the specified period will not count, regardless of whether they occurred or are reported by other sources. This market will resolve as soon as all notices for the specified period have been published. Notices published after October 25, 2026 (UTC) will not be considered, even if they relate to incidents within the specified period. The resolution source for this market will be UKMTO, specifically the Recent Incidents page at https://www.ukmto.org/recent-incidents. If that page is unavailable, notices published through UKMTO's official channels may be used.

This market resolves around Oct 26, 2026, with the outcome confirmed once the event is verifiable from credible public reporting. The final count of UKMTO notices published between October 19th and October 25th will be used to determine the winning outcome. Traders should monitor official UKMTO publications for the definitive data.

Several factors could influence the price of this market before it resolves. Any significant incidents in the Red Sea or Gulf of Aden involving maritime vessels could lead to an increase in UKMTO notices, potentially shifting the market’s probabilities. Geopolitical developments, such as increased tensions between regional actors or changes in security protocols, could also play a role. Unexpected announcements from the UKMTO regarding heightened alert levels or specific threats could also cause movement. Monitoring these events will be crucial for anyone looking to trade in this market.
