Market Analysis: Russia x Ukraine ceasefire by March 31, 2026?
The market for "Russia x Ukraine ceasefire by March 31, 2026" currently exhibits a strong consensus against resolution to "Yes", with the Yes outcome at 5.5% and No at 94.5%. This low probability reflects the high bar for resolution—requiring an official, mutually agreed halt in all military engagement (excluding targeted or humanitarian pauses), confirmed by official announcements or broad media consensus.
Trading volume metrics indicate sustained interest: total volume ($17.02M) is substantial, with 30-day volume ($8.21M) comprising ~48% of total volume, suggesting ongoing engagement over the market’s ~1.5-year lifespan. The 7-day volume ($1.29M) is notably higher than the 24-hour volume ($141.8K), indicating recent activity spikes rather than steady-state trading.
Current liquidity ($681.5K) is robust relative to the market’s outcome concentration—sufficient to absorb significant bets without major price slippage, supporting stable probability estimates despite the extreme skew. The last trade price ($0.05) aligns precisely with the current Yes probability (5.5%), confirming calibration between price and market consensus.
Recent trading trends (last 200 trades) show no price momentum change (0.00%), indicating stability in the Yes probability over the sampled window. A buy/sell ratio of 1.67 (125 buys, 75 sells) suggests more active betting for the Yes outcome, but this does not translate into price movement—likely because the magnitude of existing bets on No dominates, and/or individual bet sizes on No are larger. The presence of 24 large trades ($1,000+) and one major whale trade ($13.67K) confirms high-stakes engagement, but no evidence of recent large bets shifting the probability (e.g., no recent trades at $0.05+ or $0.04–$0.06 range), reinforcing the stability of the 5.5% estimate.
Overall, the market demonstrates high liquidity, stable probability, and consistent low probability for Yes, with no recent sentiment shift detectable in trading data. The market remains in a low-probability, high-conviction state against resolution to "Yes" by the deadline.
