April 25, 2026 - April 26, 2026, the price of 25°C surged from 42.5c to 68c as the settlement date approached and real-time temperature data significantly increased its probability. April 24, 2026 - April 25, 2026, the price of 24°C plummeted from 36c to 17.5c, eventually dropping to 2.5c, because updated forecasts revised the expected high temperature upwards, making it unlikely. April 24, 2026 - April 26, 2026, the price of 26°C steadily rose from 16.5c to 33c, reflecting an increasing likelihood that temperatures might exceed 25°C.
