Trump claims Iran’s president asked for a ceasefire. Odds for a ceasefire by April 7 are at 8% YES, down from 10% yesterday.

Markets show mixed signals. Trump’s statement hints at diplomacy, but Tehran’s denial and threats add uncertainty. The April 7 market is at 8% YES, continuing its fall from 28% a week ago. The April 15 market is at 20% YES, down from yesterday.

Further out, the April 30 market is at 38% YES, up from 37% the day before. Traders seem more optimistic about a resolution by month’s end. The odds jump 19 points between April 15 and April 30, suggesting a significant event is expected mid-April.

The market has $1,335,198 in USDC traded over the past 24 hours. It takes $48,226 to move the April 7 market by five percentage points, showing decent liquidity but vulnerability to large trades. The largest move was a 3-point drop at 9:56 PM, likely due to skepticism about Trump’s claim.

Traders are cautious. Tehran’s denial and military threats create volatility. If talks start or intermediaries like Oman or Qatar engage, the market could shift. At 8¢, a YES share for an April 7 ceasefire pays $1 if it resolves—a 12.5x return. Belief in quick diplomatic progress is needed for this bet.

Watch for Trump’s upcoming address and any signs from intermediaries or Tehran. These will be key to determining if this is a real peace move or just noise.
