This market tracks whether the WTI crude oil settlement price will be between 90.00 and 90.99 USD/Bbl on September 4, 2026. Currently, the leading outcome on Kalshi has a 59.0% probability. The market will resolve based on the daily settlement price for WTI crude oil (October 2026 contract) as reported by the resolution source. Traders should closely watch the August 2026 inventory reports from the Energy Information Administration, as these figures often provide a strong indication of supply and demand dynamics leading up to the September 4, 2026 settlement date.
The event resolves based on the daily settlement price of the October 2026 contract for WTI crude oil on September 04, 2026. Each market corresponds to a specific price range, and the market resolves to 'Yes' if the settlement price falls within that range. Prices are rounded to the nearest two decimal places. If data for the specified date is unavailable, the most recently published data is used to determine the outcome. The ranges progress from below $71.00 USD/Bbl up to above $95.99 USD/Bbl, covering a broad spectrum of potential price outcomes for the specified contract.
On Kalshi, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. On Kalshi, this market is priced through a continuous order book where traders submit bids and asks.

This market resolves around Sep 4, 2026, with the outcome confirmed once the event is verifiable from credible public reporting.

Several signals could shift this market before resolution, including unexpected changes in global oil supply, such as pipeline disruptions or OPEC+ production decisions, as well as shifts in demand due to economic slowdowns or seasonal factors. Additionally, geopolitical tensions, inventory reports, and energy policy announcements often influence trader sentiment and can cause rapid movements in implied probabilities on Kalshi.
