Trader sentiment on Polymarket reflects a 52% implied probability that WTI crude oil (CL) will hit $85 per barrel by March 31, driven primarily by tighter-than-expected US inventories and sustained OPEC+ production cuts. The EIA's latest weekly report showed a 3.8 million barrel drawdown against forecasts for a build, pushing spot prices to $82.50 amid Red Sea shipping disruptions boosting shipping costs 20%. Bullish demand signals from China's post-Lunar New Year recovery add tailwinds, though recession risks and high US output near 13.3 million bpd cap upside. Key watch: Thursday's EIA data and March 4 OPEC+ monitoring meeting, with resolution based on CME continuous contract close.

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 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 that 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.
