According to PolyBeats monitoring, three smart money accounts have collectively invested $51,000 on the prediction market Polymarket, buying "Yes" on "Will the conflict between Iran and Israel or the U.S. end within April," with the current probability of this event being "Yes" at 26%.
Per the market's rules, the settlement criteria for "Yes" does not require either party to formally announce a ceasefire or declare the end of military operations. As long as there are 14 consecutive days within the specified deadline where there are no defined "military actions" between Iran and the U.S. or Israel, the market will settle successfully.
As per the U.S. War Powers Resolution, the U.S. President can only maintain a state of armed conflict overseas for a maximum of 60 days without formal authorization from Congress. As this statutory deadline approaches, there will be significant political and legal resistance to the U.S. continuing high-intensity direct strikes post-April. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu recently stated in a public address that more than half of the targets for Iranian military actions have been achieved.
On April 1, the U.S.-Israel joint forces carried out a precise airstrike in Tehran, targeting the residence of Kamal Harazi, Iran's former Foreign Minister and top advisor to the Supreme Leader. While Harazi himself survived with serious injuries in this strike, his wife was killed on the spot. Reports indicate that Israel had previously acceded to requests from Pakistan and others to remove certain Iran negotiation-related officials, like Harazi, from the target list. President Trump himself expressed hope for successful negotiations, threatening increased strikes if talks fail. There are indications that the U.S. hopes to avoid targeting Iranian officials looking for an "exit path" to not disrupt potential negotiations.
Note: Based on their past trading behavior, this trader is not betting on whether the event will actually occur, and there is a pattern of taking profits or stop-losses at some point after opening a position.
