Description

This market will resolve to "Up" if the Close price for the Active Month of WTI Crude Oil futures on April 13, 2026 is higher than the Close price for the Active Month of WTI Crude Oil futures on the most recent prior trading day. This market will resolve to "Down" if the Close price for the Active Month of WTI Crude Oil futures on April 13, 2026 is lower than the Close price for the Active Month of WTI Crude Oil futures on the most recent prior trading day. For each trading day, the closing price refers to the Pyth "Close" value of the 1-minute candle timestamped 4:59 PM ET on that date. E.g., ordinarily, a market on Monday would refer to the previous Friday for its most recent closing price, unless Friday were not a trading day under the applicable trading-hours schedule, in which case it would refer to the next most recent prior trading day. If the two specified closing prices are exactly equal, this market will resolve 50-50. Closing prices will be used exactly as published by Pyth, without rounding. If the Active Month contract does not trade at all during the relevant trading session, the market will resolve 50-50. For WTI futures, the active month refers to the nearest listed contract month. The active month changes at 6:00:00 PM ET at the start of the trading session two business days prior to that contract's last trading day, at which point the next listed contract becomes the active month. For WTI Crude Oil (CL) futures, the last trading day is defined as three business days prior to the 25th calendar day of the month preceding the contract's delivery month (or four business days prior if the 25th calendar day is not a business day), consistent with CME contract specifications. For the purposes of this market, trading days will be determined according to the applicable trading-hours schedule for the underlying market. Under the standard schedule, trading is open from 6:00:00 PM ET Sunday through 5:00:00 PM ET Friday, with a daily break from 5:00:00 PM ET to 6:00:00 PM ET, except where modified by holiday or special-session hours as listed on Pyth. If a listed date is not a trading day under the applicable trading-hours schedule as listed on Pyth, this market will resolve 50-50. If either of the relevant days has no valid Pyth Close value for the 1-minute candle timestamped 4:59 PM ET, the market will use the last valid Pyth price achieved prior to 4:59 PM ET during that trading day as the effective closing price. If no valid Pyth price exists for that trading day due to a system outage, data failure, or other technical disruption, the official daily close price published for the Active Month WTI Crude Oil (CL) futures contract by CME Group may be used to determine the closing price for that day. Only prices achieved during the applicable trading session for the underlying market will be considered. In the event of a contract specification change, feed change, or similar structural modification affecting the underlying market during the listed time frame, this market will resolve based on adjusted prices as displayed on Pyth. The resolution source for this market will be Pyth, specifically the "Close" values for the relevant 1-minute candle for the Active Month of WTI Crude Oil futures available at https://pythdata.app/explore/Commodities.WTIK6%2FUSD. Historical 1-minute candles may be accessed by appending a Unix timestamp (seconds) to the Pyth chart URL using the "t=" parameter.

PredictionHero - Resolution Divergence Alerts (RDA)

Divergence Detected

Issue:

Kalshi and Polymarket use fundamentally incompatible resolution methodologies. Kalshi resolves based on absolute price thresholds (whether WTI settles above specific dollar amounts), while Polymarket resolves based on relative price movement (whether April 13 close is higher or lower than the prior trading day's close). These two approaches will produce opposite outcomes in many realistic scenarios.

Hero Tip:

Do not assume these markets move together. A YES on Kalshi (price above $90.99) could coincide with a NO on Polymarket (price down from prior day). Verify the prior day's closing price before trading Polymarket, and confirm the absolute settlement price before trading Kalshi. The two platforms are measuring different things entirely.

Critical Divergence Points:

  • Kalshi:

    Outlier: Resolves YES if front-month WTI settle price on April 13, 2026 exceeds any of 30 absolute price thresholds ranging from $80.99 to $109.99 per barrel. Uses absolute settlement value as the sole determinant. Key quote: 'If the front-month settle price for a barrel of West Texas Intermediate oil on April 13, 2026 is above [threshold], then the market resolves to Yes.'
  • Polymarket:

    Outlier: Resolves UP if April 13, 2026 close price is higher than the prior trading day's close price; resolves DOWN if lower; resolves 50-50 if equal or if no trade occurs. Uses relative price movement (day-over-day comparison) as the determinant, not absolute price levels. Key quote: 'This market will resolve to Up if the Close price for the Active Month of WTI Crude Oil futures on April 13, 2026 is higher than the Close price for the Active Month of WTI Crude Oil futures on the most recent prior trading day.'
