The chart shows our estimated outcome probabilities at each complete assessment.

1. Oct 12, 2026 UTC — Public tracking started; no independent probability estimate yet.; Starting public context: What will WTI Crude Oil (WTI) hit in October 2026?
2. Oct 12, 2026 UTC — The most likely outcome is "不确定，需更多信息", with a our assessmentestimate of 55%.; In its short-term energy outlook released on October 7, 2026, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) raised its 2026 WTI price forecast to $88.21 per barrel and Brent to $96.32 per barrel, both higher than previous estimates. UBS also raised its 2026-2027 Brent price forecasts on October 6 due to ongoing Middle East supply disruptions. These reports indicate a bullish outlook but do not directly address whether WTI will hit $95 in October or the risk of a subsequent pullback. A forecasting website provides daily WTI price predictions for October 5-9 ranging from $97.51 to $107.11, but this was published on September 20 and lacks detailed methodology. Overall, the evidence shows upward revisions in price forecasts but does not clearly support the claim that high probability implies prices are near a peak or that pullback risk has increased, nor does it provide sufficient information to determine whether the high probability indicates a peak.
3. Oct 13, 2026 UTC — The most likely outcome is "不确定，需更多信息", with a our assessmentestimate of 53%.; The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) on October 7 raised its 2026 average WTI forecast to $88.21/barrel and Brent to $96.32/barrel, citing ongoing Middle East supply disruptions (evidence 0, 1). A forecast published September 20 projected WTI prices between $97.51 and $107.11 for October 5-9, above $95 (evidence 2). However, another forecast from July 22 expected prices to decline moderately in 2026, with a peak around $65 (evidence 3). These reports do not provide actual October price movements or confirmation of whether $95 was reached, nor do they establish a direct link between high probability and peak or pullback risk. Thus, the evidence is insufficient to determine whether high probability implies prices are near a peak or that pullback risk has increased.
