President Trump has said the Iran ceasefire is unlikely to extend without a peace deal. The market for the US-Iran ceasefire ending by April 21 sits at 4% YES, with traders skeptical about an imminent announcement.

## Market reaction

The Israel-Iran permanent peace deal by April 30 market is at 4.8% YES, up slightly from 4% a day ago. Traders clearly doubt a breakthrough within the next 10 days. The June 30 market is more active at 19% YES, pricing in some possibility of progress over a longer window.

## Why it matters

With just a single day left, the April 21 market has dropped from 36% a week ago to 3.8% now, as traders price in the absence of any new deal. The April 30 ceasefire continuation market is at 30.5%, showing some expectation that the ceasefire could extend past the immediate deadline.

Volume and liquidity are thin across the board. The permanent peace deal market has a daily face value of $49,406 but only $2,604 in actual USDC, with just $422 needed to shift odds by 5 points. A single large order could move prices without any real negotiation progress behind it.

## What to watch

Trump’s statement adds pressure on negotiations, but without a breakthrough, these markets are bearish on peace prospects. At 4.8¢, a YES share in the April 30 deal pays $1 if resolved, a 20.8x return. Believing in a deal within 10 days requires betting on last-minute diplomacy.

Watch for developments out of Islamabad or unexpected announcements from Trump or Iranian officials. A change in rhetoric or a new diplomatic offer could swing these odds quickly.
