Will the WTI crude oil settlement price be above 84.99 USD/Bbl on Jul 20, 2026?

implied chance of YES▲ 20 today

The crowd may be overcharging for this

Contracts like this one have settled YES only 32.1% of the time, and the crowd is charging 39c. Based on 187 settled markets across all categories in the 30-39c band (we do not yet hold enough economics history to price this by category, so this is the market-wide curve and is weaker evidence). Buying this systematically has been a slow bleed, and the 2c fee makes it worse.

This is what this kind of contract has been worth, not a forecast for this one: a band average does not know what is happening in the news. See the Fair Value Board for every market scored this way, or the economics curve it came from.

What history says about this price

Across our settled record, markets priced near 40–49¢ have gone on to settle YES 50% of the time (n=312). The price implies 40%, so historically this band has come in about 10 points higher than the sticker. That is history, not a forecast for this specific market. See the Truth Machine for the full curve.
