Market details

Resolution rules

Each outcome is a separate contract with its own rules. The rules for Above 60,000 MW:

If the highest hourly total system load reported for the ERCOT grid on October 22, 2026 is above 60,000 MW, then the market resolves to Yes. The Expiration Value is the highest value in the TOTAL column of the first complete “Actual System Load by Forecast Zone” CSV report published by ERCOT for the October 22, 2026 operating day. Each value represents ERCOT system load for the corresponding full hour. Instantaneous load readings displayed elsewhere by ERCOT will not be considered. Values will be compared as published without rounding. Later revisions, settlement adjustments, or republications will not affect the Expiration Value.
