Iran has yet to confirm participation in Pakistan-hosted talks, casting doubt on diplomatic progress. The chance of a US-Iran permanent peace deal by April 22 sits at 19.5%, down from 16% just 24 hours ago.
Iran’s hesitation and US officials criticizing Trump’s negotiating style have moved related markets. The April 22 peace deal market dropped 4 points, while the April 30 market is at 41.5%, down one point. The June 30 market holds at 69.5%, meaning traders still see a longer timeline as more likely to produce a deal.
Volume across these markets is $1.1M in USDC over the last 24 hours. The sharpest price move was a 4-point spike in the April 22 market, triggered by a single large order. The current order book requires $63,331 to move the market 5 points — thick enough to absorb most trades, but still susceptible to outsized positions.
Stalled talks and Trump’s aggressive posturing raise the risk of the ceasefire collapsing. The April 21 ceasefire end market is at just 3.8%, largely because the current ceasefire is about to expire anyway. The broader April 30 ceasefire market is at 38%, with traders skeptical about a near-term resolution.
Buying YES at 19.5¢ pays $1 if a permanent deal is reached by April 22, a 8.3x return. But with no confirmed talks and Trump’s hardline rhetoric, that bet requires a last-minute diplomatic breakthrough that nothing currently points toward.
Watch Islamabad. If Iran confirms participation or Trump softens his tone, expect sharp price moves. The next signal will likely come from a US or Iranian official statement or a mediation development from Pakistan.
