Trump’s opposition to a ceasefire extension with Iran has pushed odds for the ceasefire being extended by April 21 down to 22.5% YES, a 33-point drop from 69% a week ago.
Market reaction
The US-Iran Ceasefire Extension market is thin: just $2,773 of capital moves the odds 5 points. Daily actual USDC volume is at $264,370. Traders are pricing in Trump’s hardline stance, making an extension appear unlikely.
The US-Iran Ceasefire End by April 21 market sits at 12.4% YES, up from 36% last week. The largest move was a 7-point spike at 4:54 PM, consistent with traders hedging against a sudden breakdown in talks.
Why it matters
The Trump Endorsement of Israeli Ceasefire market remains at 100% YES, despite the news indicating a hard stance against ceasefires. This is a statistical quirk rather than an active market signal, a mismatch worth watching.
Trump’s statement is a clear signal, but not an irreversible step. If Pakistan, acting as mediator, brokers a last-minute deal, odds could shift rapidly.
What to watch
Watch for CENTCOM announcements or any late-night tweets from Trump. Statements from Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu or Iranian FM Abbas Araghchi could also move these markets. Any diplomatic activity in Pakistan is worth tracking closely.
