WTI crude oil futures hover near $91.50 per barrel mid-April 2026, reflecting trader consensus balancing persistent Middle East geopolitical risks—particularly Strait of Hormuz tensions and Iran-related disruptions that propelled prices above $112 earlier this month—against softening demand outlooks. U.S. inventories unexpectedly drew down 913,000 barrels to 463.8 million for the week ended April 10, supporting prices amid rising exports to sanction-hit Europe, while OPEC's April Monthly Oil Market Report trimmed second-quarter global demand growth forecasts amid conflict impacts. The backwardated futures curve, with May contracts at ~$92 and June dipping toward $89, implies near-term tightness but easing pressures; watch weekly EIA storage reports and OPEC+ production adjustments effective May for resolution catalysts through month-end.

For WTI futures, the active month refers to the nearest listed contract month. The active month changes at 6:00:00 PM ET at the start of the trading session two business days prior to that contract's last trading day, at which point the next listed contract becomes the active month.
For WTI Crude Oil (CL) futures, the last trading day is defined as three business days prior to the 25th calendar day of the month preceding the contract's delivery month (or four business days prior if the 25th calendar day is not a business day), consistent with CME contract specifications.
Only prices achieved during the applicable trading session for the underlying market will be considered. Under the standard schedule, trading is open from 6:00:00 PM ET Sunday through 5:00:00 PM ET Friday, with a daily break from 5:00:00 PM ET to 6:00:00 PM ET, except where modified by holiday or special-session hours as listed on Pyth.
Prices will be used exactly as published by Pyth, without rounding.
If the Active Month contract does not trade at all during the listed time frame, this market will resolve to "No".
In the event of a contract specification change, feed change, or similar structural modification affecting the underlying market during the listed time frame, this market will resolve based on adjusted prices as displayed on Pyth.
The resolution source for this market is Pyth — specifically, the Active Month WTI Crude Oil futures "Low" prices available at https://pythdata.app/explore?search=WTI, with the chart settings configured for 1-minute candles.
Historical 1-minute candles may be accessed by appending a Unix timestamp (seconds) to the Pyth chart URL using the "t=" parameter.
If the relevant Pyth data is unavailable due to a system outage, data failure, or other technical disruption that prevents verification of the required 1-minute candle data, the official daily low price published for the Active Month WTI Crude Oil (CL) futures contract by CME Group may be used to determine whether the listed price was reached during the applicable trading session.
