Iran’s Khorramshahr port was hit, and the U.S. continues backchannel talks instead of official diplomacy. Ceasefire by April 7 is at 1% YES, down from 12% a week ago.

April 15’s odds dropped to 6% YES from 22% a week ago, showing traders’ skepticism about a short-term ceasefire. April 30 stands at 18% YES, reflecting similar doubts. The largest shift occurs between April 30 and May 31, with a 19-point jump, suggesting traders expect potential diplomatic activity in May.

Daily trading volume is significant, with $430,773 in USDC traded. It takes just $12,367 to move the April 7 odds by 5 points, showing vulnerability to larger trades. The largest price move in the last 24 hours was a 2-point spike for the April 30 market, indicating traders are cautious but not overly reactive.

Traders face uncertainty. At 1¢, a YES share for April 7 pays $1 if a ceasefire happens — a 100x return if a diplomatic breakthrough occurs. Current odds show skepticism about a quick resolution. The source tier of this news suggests caution, as social media can amplify noise over signal.

Watch for statements from key actors like Secretary of State Rubio or intermediaries like Oman and Qatar, which could sway market sentiment. Any confirmed talks or diplomatic progress will be pivotal.
