Geopolitical escalations in the Middle East, including Iran-related conflicts and potential Strait of Hormuz disruptions, have fueled sharp WTI crude oil price volatility in April 2026, with spot prices surging past $100 early in the month before a reported U.S.-Iran agreement triggered an April 8 plunge of 13-16%. OPEC's April 13 downward revision to Q2 global demand growth amid the Iran war contrasts with EIA's forecast of 0.6 million b/d expansion for 2026 overall, while non-OPEC+ supply gains offset ongoing production cuts. WTI futures exhibit backwardation signaling near-term tightness, with traders monitoring weekly EIA inventory builds and Brent's projected Q2 peak near $115 per barrel ahead of potential OPEC+ adjustments.

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 "High" 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 high 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.
