Resolution relies on verifying specific technical criteria—such as distinguishing direct unintercepted impacts from falling debris or intercepted munitions, and differentiating between excluded MLRS/short-range strikes and qualifying ballistic/cruise missiles or air strikes. Resolution does not rely on a single primary data feed or named authority, instead requiring the market operator to judge a consensus between official statements from both combatants and credible media reporting. If conflicting reports emerge near the deadline, resolution can be paused for up to three days to evaluate the totality of evidence, creating potential uncertainty if attribution or the nature of an impact remains contested in fog-of-war conditions.

Market explained before close
This market measures whether a ceasefire between Israel and Iran holds through November 4 at 11:59 PM IRST, determined specifically by the absence of directly impacting air strikes or surface-to-surface missile strikes.
How it resolves
The market resolves to Yes if a ceasefire remains in effect between Israel and Iran through November 4 at 11:59 PM IRST without either country executing a qualifying military action. The market resolves to No if either Israel or Iran initiates an air strike or surface-to-surface missile strike that directly impacts the terrestrial territory or internal waters of the other country. Qualifying strikes include bombs, air-to-surface missiles, air-launched drones, one-way attack drones, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles. Intercepted munitions, debris from interceptions, surface-to-air strikes, artillery, cyber operations, ground incursions, and minor strikes do not count as qualifying military actions. Resolution is decided by a consensus of official information from the governments and militaries of Israel and Iran and credible reporting.

Resolution rules at close
This market will resolve to "Yes" if a state of ceasefire remains in effect between Israel and Iran through the listed date, 11:59 PM Iran Standard Time (IRST). Otherwise this market will resolve to “No”. A state of ceasefire will be considered to no longer be in effect between Israel and Iran if either Israel or Iran takes a qualifying military action against the other country between market creation and the listed date, 11:59 PM IRST. A qualifying military action refers to an air strike or a surface-to-surface missile strike, initiated by Israel or Iran, that directly impacts the other country. An air strike includes bombs, air-to-surface missiles, and air-launched drones. A surface-to-surface missile strike includes one-way attack drones and surface-to-surface missiles such as cruise or ballistic missiles. The following actions do not constitute a qualifying military action: Munitions destroyed or intercepted before impact; Surface-to-air missile strikes; Small-arms fire; Ground incursions; Cyber operations; Naval gunfire and artillery fire; Howitzers, artillery pieces, mortars, and rocket artillery (e.g. MLRS systems); Minor surface-to-surface strikes, including short range loitering munitions, FPV drones, and ATGM strikes; Any threat, authorization, or announcement of force that has not been executed. Any munition that is intercepted or destroyed before impact does not constitute a qualifying military action. Debris, fragments, or any wreckage from intercepted munitions that land on Israel or Iran do not constitute a military action regardless of any damage incurred. A military action will be considered to impact Israel or Iran if it directly impacts the terrestrial territory of Israel or Iran, including any internal waters. Maritime territory and airspace are not encompassed. Where territorial borders are disputed, all territory claimed by and under the de facto control of the relevant state as of market creation will qualify. The occurrence, attribution, and timing of a qualifying military action will be primarily determined based on a consensus of information available from the resolution sources. Where multiple sources conflict regarding the occurrence, attribution, or timing of a relevant military action, this market will remain open until the earlier of: i) the confirmation of the occurrence, attribution, and timing of the action based on a consensus of information available from the resolution sources or ii) 3 full calendar days (IRST) from the date of the first credibly reported evidence of the action. If this period would extend past the end date, this market will remain open to allow for 3 full calendar days to pass. If, at the end of the third calendar day, conflicting reports remain as to the occurrence, attribution, or timing of the action, this market will resolve based on the totality of information available from the resolution sources at that time. No single statement, denial, or presentation of evidence will govern where it is contradicted by the totality of information. The resolution sources for this market will be official information from the governments and militaries of Israel and Iran and credible reporting.
