Chongqing’s weather market is moving fast. The 24°C outcome has surged 25.5% in the last 24 hours, landing at a 55% implied probability as of June 11. That kind of single-day price jump tells you one thing: fresh forecast data landed, and traders repriced around it hard.

The market question asks whether June 11 will see a highest temperature of exactly 24°C in Chongqing. The 24°C outcome trades at 0.55 YES and 0.45 NO. Resolution closes at 12:00 UTC on June 11. Total volume stands at $21,449, with $17,204 of that printed in the last 24 hours alone.

How the Chongqing Temperature Contract Works

This contract resolves YES if the recorded daily high in Chongqing on June 11 lands precisely at 24°C, as confirmed by the designated resolution source. Every other temperature outcome — 23°C, 25°C, 26°C, and the full ladder up to 30°C or higher — resolves NO for this specific contract. The resolution window closes at noon UTC.

  • 24°C YES trades at 0.55, implying a 55% chance the daily high lands exactly at that reading.
  • 24°C NO trades at 0.45, implying a 45% chance the high comes in at any other value.

A NO outcome does not require extreme weather. Any reading other than 24°C — even 23°C or 25°C — pays out the NO side. Early June in Chongqing typically sits in the mid-to-upper twenties range. A modest overshoot or undershoot is all it takes for the NO contract to pay.

Momentum and Market Signals: A Sharp 24-Hour Move

The momentum composite here is unusually clear. A flat 1-hour change combined with a 25.5% 24-hour surge and a trend score of 64.07 points to a single burst of conviction, not sustained drift. That pattern fits a weather forecast update: a model run prints, traders pile in, and then the market steadies as it waits for the actual observation.

Total volume at $21,449 is thin by prediction market standards. More than 80% of that volume printed in the last 24 hours, which amplifies the signal but also amplifies fragility. At this volume level, a single updated forecast or a diverging model run can reprice the contract sharply before close. Liquidity sits at $48,702, which is healthy relative to volume and means the order book can absorb moderate-sized bets without slippage.

  • The 24-hour price change of +25.5% reflects a decisive forecast-driven move, not gradual consensus building.
  • The 1-hour flatline at +0.0% suggests traders are now holding and watching, not adding pressure.
  • Liquidity of $48,702 against volume of $21,449 indicates a well-supported book relative to recent activity.
  • Thin total volume means new forecast data before close could reprice this contract by 10 percentage points or more.
  • The trend score of 64.07 sits in moderate-conviction territory, not a runaway signal.

Lines Analysis: Chongqing June 11 High

The case for 24°C rests entirely on what short-range weather models are showing for Chongqing’s June 11 daytime maximum. The 25.5% price surge in 24 hours strongly implies that at least one major numerical weather prediction model, likely the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts ensemble or the China Meteorological Administration’s regional model, printed a deterministic 24°C high for the city. Traders who track model output in real time moved first. The rest of the market followed.

What makes the NO side real is straightforward: Chongqing in early June is not a stable, low-variance temperature environment. The city sits in a basin that amplifies daytime heating, and synoptic-scale systems moving through the Sichuan region can shift daily highs by two to three degrees in either direction on short notice. A 25°C or 26°C outcome is not a tail risk. Neither is 23°C on a cloudy or showery day. The NO contract pays on any of those outcomes equally.

  • China Meteorological Administration station data for Chongqing on June 11 is the direct resolution trigger. Any official reading other than 24°C flips the contract.
  • Model consensus convergence toward 24°C before the observation window closes would push YES higher. Divergence would push it lower fast.
  • Afternoon convective development in Chongqing’s basin topography can suppress daytime highs below forecast. Watch for cloud cover signals.
  • A synoptic trough moving through Sichuan before noon local time could undercut the 24°C forecast by one to two degrees.
  • The 30-day price low of 0.26 versus the current 0.55 shows this contract started with very little conviction. The move is recent and forecast-driven.

Total volume of $21,449 is not large enough to signal deep institutional conviction. The data favors 24°C right now, but the edge is narrow and the observation has not landed yet. Here’s what the measurements are telling us: the models agree for now, but Chongqing’s topography means the actual station reading is the only number that matters.

SLIM EDGE TO YES, MARKET REMAINS LIVE UNTIL OBSERVATION

The 24-hour surge reflects real forecast signal, not noise. But at 55% on thin volume, the market is pricing uncertainty, not science. The actual station reading, not the model output, closes this contract.

What the market says: A 55% implied probability means traders see 24°C as the most likely single outcome but acknowledge a coin-flip quality to a precise temperature call. With resolution at noon UTC on June 11, this contract has almost no time left for further repricing before the observation arrives.

Key unknown: The China Meteorological Administration’s official June 11 daily maximum reading for Chongqing is the single number that resolves everything. Any deviation from 24°C, in either direction, pays NO.

Frequently Asked Questions

It means traders currently estimate a 55% chance the Chongqing daily high on June 11 lands exactly at 24°C. The remaining 45% is spread across all other possible temperature outcomes.

The NO contract pays if the official Chongqing daily high on June 11 is any temperature other than 24°C. That includes 23°C, 25°C, or any value on the full ladder of outcomes.

An updated short-range forecast from the China Meteorological Administration or a major global model showing a shift away from 24°C would reprice the contract. The observation window closes at noon UTC, leaving very little time for new information.

The market resolves on June 11 at 12:00 UTC. Resolution is based on the official temperature reading for Chongqing from the designated resolution source.

Total volume of $21,449 is thin. The $48,702 liquidity buffer is solid relative to volume, but a single large bet or a new forecast print before close could move the price by 10 percentage points or more.

Resolution Analysis

Model Consensus Holds at 24C

If the China Meteorological Administration's latest model run and global ensemble forecasts maintain a deterministic 24°C daily maximum for Chongqing, late-arriving traders push YES above 65%. Clear skies and stable synoptic conditions in the Sichuan basin would reinforce the forecast signal and lock in the observation near target.

Basin Heating Pushes High to 25C or 26C

Chongqing's topographic basin is a heat amplifier. If afternoon sun angles and low wind produce stronger-than-forecast convective heating, the official station reading overshoots to 25°C or 26°C. That single-degree deviation pays NO in full and collapses the 24°C contract regardless of forecast confidence.

Cloud Cover or Trough Drops High to 23C

A synoptic trough or mesoscale cloud band moving through the Sichuan region before noon local time could suppress daytime heating below the model target. A 23°C official reading resolves NO and would represent a sharp reversal of the 24-hour bullish move. Early June cloud development in Chongqing is not uncommon.

Late Model Run Shows Sharp Forecast Shift

Weather models update every six hours. A final pre-resolution model run printing a significantly different temperature, say 26°C or 22°C, could trigger rapid repricing in the thin order book before the noon UTC close. At $21,449 total volume, a single informed trader acting on fresh model data can move this contract by 10 to 15 percentage points in minutes.

Key macro factor: Early June 2026 synoptic patterns across the Sichuan Basin are influenced by the late-spring transition, when Pacific moisture and continental air mass boundaries create higher day-to-day temperature variance than mid-summer.
