Trader consensus favors 20-24 ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz during March 17-23 at 53.8%, with 15-19 close behind at 42.5%, driven by the 2026 Strait of Hormuz crisis where Iran imposed selective passage controls amid US-Israel military actions. Maritime intelligence from Windward reported just 16 AIS-visible crossings over March 16-22, averaging under 3 daily, while UANI noted a single open transit on March 22. A brief uptick around March 17-18, with vessels nearly doubling per tracking data, contributed to the narrow lead for higher bins, though dark fleet activity and IRGC oversight obscure precise counts awaiting IMF Portwatch confirmation for market resolution.
