This market will resolve according to the 7-day moving average of transit calls (“Arrivals of Ships”) for the Strait of Hormuz that IMF Portwatch reports for the specified date. Transit calls include container, dry bulk, roll-on/roll-off, general cargo, and tanker ships. Ships not reported by IMF Portwatch will not be considered. This market will resolve as soon as the data for the specified date has been published. If no data for the specified date has been published by 11:59 PM ET on the seventh day after the end of the specified date, this market will resolve based on data for the most recent date prior to the specified date for which data is available. This market will resolve based on the first publication of data for the specified date. Any subsequent revisions will not be considered. If the reported value falls exactly between two brackets, this market will resolve to the higher range bracket. The resolution source for this market will be IMF Portwatch, specifically the transit calls data published for the Strait of Hormuz at https://portwatch.imf.org/pages/cb5856222a5b4105adc6ee7e880a1730, both in the chart and through downloadable files.Ongoing restrictions imposed by Iran amid the wider regional conflict have collapsed average daily vessel transits through the Strait of Hormuz from pre-March levels of 130+ to 5-20 ships recently, per AIS data from Windward and IMF PortWatch, fueling trader consensus around 4-15 ships for April 12. The 8-11 bin leads narrowly at 35.5%, reflecting a modest uptick since late March—highlighted by 7-18 transits in the past week—driven by Tehran's exemptions for Iraqi, Omani, Indian, French, and Japanese vessels. This keeps the race tight between sustained low traffic (4-7 at 31.5%) and potential normalization (12-15 at 30%), with separation hinging on further diplomatic allowances, IRGC enforcement shifts, or naval incidents before resolution.
