WTI crude oil (CL) front-month futures have surged past $102 per barrel on March 30, 2026, driven primarily by escalating Middle East geopolitical risks, including US-Iran conflict disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz that have slashed petroleum shipments and fueled a sharp supply risk premium. This overrides recent bearish US EIA data showing commercial crude inventories rising 6.2 million barrels for the week ending March 20, amid steady imports and softer exports. OPEC+ approved a modest 206,000 bpd output hike for April in early March, yet trader sentiment reflects heightened volatility from ongoing war impacts. End-of-March settlement looms today, with intraday swings pivotal for price threshold resolutions.

This market will resolve to "Yes" if, on any trading day, the official CME settlement price for the Active Month (front month) of Crude Oil (CL) futures is equal to or above the listed price by the final trading day of March 2026. Otherwise, the market will resolve to "No".
For CME Crude Oil (CL) futures contracts, the active month is the nearest of the contract months listed.

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.

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.
