Analysis

8d ago

The market has collapsed 49% over seven days (37¢ to 19¢), pricing in only a 19% probability that NG touches $3.00 during April despite an extraordinarily high implied yield of 10,539% on the Yes side, suggesting either capitulation selling or conviction that current price levels make this strike increasingly unlikely. With just 15 days to expiry and only $167k in 24-hour volume against $4M open interest, liquidity is thin relative to positioning, creating potential for sharp moves if new information arrives at the current 0.7 events per hour rate. The 1,499% realized volatility indicates NG has been extremely volatile historically, but the neutral regime score and tight 1¢ spread suggest the market is currently pricing this as a low-probability tail event rather than a genuine near-term threat.

Resolution rules

This market will resolve to "Yes" if, at any point during April 2026, any 1-minute candle for the Active Month of Natural Gas futures has a final "High" price equal to or above the listed price. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". For Natural Gas 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 Natural Gas (NG) futures, the last trading day is defined as the third last business day of the month prior to the contract month, 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 Natural Gas futures "High" prices available at https://pythdata.app/explore?search=ngd, 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 Natural Gas (NG) futures contract by CME Group may be used to determine whether the listed price was reached during the applicable trading session.
