Trader consensus on Polymarket assigns a 56.5% implied probability to WTI crude oil (CL) settling at $90+ in March, propelled by escalating Middle East tensions disrupting Red Sea shipping routes and OPEC+'s extended production cuts constraining global supply amid steady US inventory draws. The latest EIA report revealed a 1.4 million barrel stockpile decline last week, surpassing forecasts and lifting front-month futures to around $72/bbl. Bolstering this bullish sentiment are signs of Chinese demand rebounding post-Lunar New Year and anticipated Fed rate cuts stimulating economic activity, while $85-$90 (23%) emerges as the secondary outcome; lower bins reflect recession risks and potential supply surges.

If the reported value falls exactly between two brackets, then this market will resolve to the higher range bracket.
If the final trading day of the month is shortened (for example, due to a market-holiday schedule), the official settlement price published for that shortened session will still be used for resolution. If no settlement price is published for that session, the market will use the most recent published settlement for the Active Month during March.
For CME Crude Oil (CL) futures contracts, the active month is the nearest of the contract months listed. The active month becomes a non-active month effective two business days prior to the spot month expiration. For example; if the spot month expires on a Friday the next listed contract will be considered the Active Month on the Wednesday prior to the spot month expiration.
Only the Active Month's official settlement price published by CME Group will be considered. Intraday trades, highs, lows, bids, offers, midpoint values, or indicative prices do not count.
Note that the settlement price may differ from the last traded price. CME's methodology to determine the settlement price can vary by commodity and contract.
Only days during March on which CME publishes an official settlement price for the Active Month will be included. Days without settlement prices (weekends, holidays, or market closures) are ignored.
This market will resolve based on the settlement price as it appears on the CME settlement page at the time it is first published for the relevant trading day, regardless of any later corrections or updates.
The resolution source for this market is the CME Group website — specifically, the daily "Settlement" price for the Active Month of Crude Oil (CL) futures.
