Description

This market will resolve to "Up" if the Close price for the Active Month of WTI Crude Oil futures on June 17, 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 June 17, 2026, is lower than the Close price for the Active Month of WTI Crude Oil futures on the most recent prior trading day. 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. For a standard full trading session, the closing price refers to the Pyth "Close" value of the 1-minute candle corresponding to the final minute of regular trading hours on the primary exchange. Closing prices will be used exactly as published by Pyth, without rounding. If the two specified closing prices are exactly equal, if the Active Month contract does not trade at all during the relevant trading session, or if the listed date is not a trading day under the applicable trading-hours schedule, the market will resolve 50-50. 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. Per CME contract specifications for WTI Crude Oil (CL) futures, a contract's last trading day is 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). The active month changes at the start of the second trading session prior to the nearest listed contract's last trading session. At that point, the next listed contract becomes the active month (i.e., for the final three trading sessions of the nearest listed contract, the contract for the next month is the active month). The trading session for a given business day typically begins at 6:00 PM ET on the prior calendar date. For example, if the 25th of the month is a Saturday, the last trading session for the nearest listed contract is the session for Tuesday the 21st, and the next listed contract becomes the active month at the start of the trading session for Friday the 17th (6:00 PM ET on Thursday), assuming a standard trading calendar. Both closing prices will reference the same underlying contract, specifically the contract that is considered the Active Month at the end of the trading session on the specified date. If either of the relevant days has no valid Pyth Close value for the 1-minute candle corresponding to the end of regular trading hours on the primary exchange, the market will use the last valid Pyth price achieved during the regular trading hours of the primary exchange 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 settlement price published by the primary exchange on which the listed security trades will be used to determine the closing price for that day. 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 candles for the Active Month of WTI Crude Oil futures available at https://pythdata.app/explore?search=WTI. Historical 1-minute candles may be accessed by appending a Unix timestamp (seconds) to the Pyth chart URL using the "t=" parameter.

Frequently asked questions

On Polymarket, the WTI crude oil price movement market dashboard tracks real-time odds and historical price data for whether West Texas Intermediate crude will close higher or lower on June 17. The interface displays the current probability assigned by traders to each outcome, along with 24-hour volume and order-book depth. This market reflects collective trader sentiment on intraday oil price direction, updated continuously as new information and trading activity flow in. The dashboard helps participants monitor shifting expectations ahead of the resolution date.

Prediction market odds often diverge from traditional analyst forecasts because they aggregate real-money bets rather than survey opinions. Traders in this market are financially incentivized to price in all available information—OPEC announcements, geopolitical developments, inventory reports, and macroeconomic signals—instantly. Analyst consensus, by contrast, may lag or reflect institutional biases. Comparing this market's odds to published oil-price forecasts from major banks or energy consultancies can reveal where the crowd sees asymmetric risk, though neither source guarantees accuracy on any single trading day.

On Polymarket, traders set prices by buying and selling shares representing each outcome—WTI up or down on June 17. On Polymarket, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. The price of each share reflects the implied probability; a share trading at 0.65 suggests a 65% chance of that outcome. Liquidity and order flow determine how quickly prices adjust to breaking news, economic data, or shifts in trader conviction. Wider spreads between bid and ask indicate lower liquidity, while tighter spreads suggest active participation and confidence in price discovery.

This market resolves around Jun 17, 2026, once the trading day closes and WTI's final price is verifiable from credible public sources. The outcome is determined by whether the closing price on that date is higher or lower than the opening price. Resolution typically occurs within hours of market close, pending confirmation from major financial data providers. Traders should monitor official WTI settlement prices to anticipate the final result.

Major catalysts include OPEC production decisions, U.S. inventory reports from the Energy Information Administration, geopolitical tensions affecting supply, Federal Reserve policy signals, and broader equity-market volatility. Unexpected refinery outages, hurricane forecasts affecting Gulf of Mexico operations, or sudden shifts in global demand can trigger sharp intraday swings. Traders also watch crude-futures contracts and options markets for clues about institutional positioning. Currency movements and competing commodities like natural gas may influence sentiment as well, making this market sensitive to a wide range of energy and macro news.
