A fragile US-Iran ceasefire, initially agreed on April 8, 2026, for two weeks after weeks of intense fighting including US airstrikes and Iranian missile barrages, was unilaterally extended by President Trump on April 21 until Tehran submits a formal peace proposal. Iran presented its latest offer on April 28, focusing on lifting US sanctions, nuclear constraints, and Strait of Hormuz access amid ongoing naval blockade and low-level clashes. Talks mediated by Pakistan in Islamabad remain stalled, with traders weighing diplomatic breakthroughs against escalation risks from proxy conflicts and depleted munitions stocks. Upcoming negotiations and Iran's internal pressures could determine further extensions or conflict resumption before May deadlines.

Both extensions of the April 7 ceasefire and new agreements for an extended ceasefire will qualify, even if a brief period occurs during which there is no formal ceasefire in effect after the expiration of the April 7 ceasefire.
If a qualifying agreement is officially reached before the resolution date, this market will resolve to “Yes,” regardless of whether the ceasefire extension ultimately takes effect.
An extension of the ceasefire agreement requires clear public confirmation from both the United States government and the government of Iran that they have agreed to halt military hostilities against one another for longer than the initially agreed two-week period, or for an official extension of the ceasefire agreement in place to be otherwise confirmed by an overwhelming consensus of media reporting.
Any form of informal understanding, backchannel communication, de-escalation, or unilateral pause in hostilities without a confirmed agreement on a qualifying extension will not qualify. Similarly, newly agreed-upon humanitarian pauses, limited operational pauses, or temporary tactical stand-downs will not qualify.
A newly agreed-upon broader peace deal will qualify if it includes a qualifying extension of the ceasefire agreement/halt in military hostilities. Agreements that outline future negotiations or de-escalation measures, but do not explicitly commit to extending the ceasefire, will not qualify.
This market’s resolution will be based on official statements from the United States government and the government of Iran. However, an overwhelming consensus of credible media reporting confirming that an official ceasefire extension agreement has been reached will suffice.
