President Trump’s indefinite ceasefire extension with Iran has pushed the WTI Crude Oil $160 April target down to 0.7% YES, falling from 1% yesterday, while Ethereum’s April 23 price market holds at 99.9% YES.
## Market reaction
The ceasefire announcement is compressing geopolitical risk premiums in oil. The WTI Crude Oil April market sits at 0.7% YES, down 0.3 percentage points over the last day. Traders see little chance of supply disruption despite the ongoing naval blockade. The market’s face value is $49,622 daily but only $514 in actual USDC, with $1,955 needed to move the price 5 points, a sign of very thin trading depth.
Ethereum’s April 23 market holds at 99.9% YES, with traders expecting ETH to stay above $1,800. The ceasefire’s effect on Ethereum is indirect, filtered through broader market sentiment rather than direct geopolitical exposure.
## Why it matters
The oil market’s thin liquidity means small trades can move prices substantially. That 0.3 percentage point drop was the largest move in the last day. Ethereum’s near-certain odds, by contrast, reflect strong trader confidence that hasn’t budged.
## What to watch
For traders, the ceasefire extension shifts the picture but doesn’t transform it. Betting against oil hitting $160 in April looks like the safer position at current prices, with limited upside for YES given reduced geopolitical tension. Ethereum’s odds leave almost no room for profit given the near-certainty of resolving above $1,800.
Any changes in U.S.-Iran relations around the Strait of Hormuz could move oil markets fast. Watch for announcements from President Trump or military movements in the region.
