A free closing line value tracker: log the bet, it grades itself against the close
Short answer: OddsFloor's tracker logs a bet in one tap from the +EV board, captures a
sharp reference price at game start, and shows you the closing line value on every bet and on
average. Results settle themselves too. Free with an account, no card.
Results lie for months. A coin flip can run 60% over a hundred bets. Closing line value
measures something steadier: whether the price you took was better than the price the market
settled on when the game started, margin removed.
Beat the close often and you're getting prices the market later agreed were too good. Lose to
it often and your edge is on paper, whatever your record says. It's the one number worth
tracking before you trust any screener, ours included.
What the tracker does
One tap to log. Any row on the board logs to the tracker with the price you saw, the
fair number and the stake.
Captures the close. At game start it stores a sharp reference price for that market
and compares it with yours, margin removed.
CLV per bet and on average, as a percentage, so a week of bets reads at a glance.
Grades results on its own. Won, lost, push and void settle from scores. Grading is
one tap when you need to override it, and reversible.
Manual bets. Log a bet the board didn't flag. It counts in your profit and loss.
Syncs to your account, so the log is the same on your phone and your desk.
What it doesn't do
It doesn't compute CLV on a manual bet. It doesn't know the market, so it can't capture the
close. You settle those yourself.
It doesn't compute CLV on an in-play bet. Scoring a live price against a pregame close
would measure the wrong thing. It grades the result and stops there.
It doesn't read your sportsbook account. You log the bet. It never sees your login.
It doesn't make a bad screener good. If your average CLV is negative over a real sample,
change what you're betting, not the tracker.
What we hold ourselves to
The same measurement runs on our own finds. Every qualifying board find is logged by machine
and graded against the close, losses showing, at /record. If our CLV goes
negative over a real sample, that page says so before we do.
After game start, open the tracker. CLV is on the row.
After a few dozen bets, read the average. Then read it again in a month.
FAQ
What is closing line value?
The difference between the price you bet and the market's price when the game started, after
the margin is removed. Beat the close often and you're getting prices the market later agreed
were too good. Results take hundreds of bets to say anything. CLV says it in dozens.
Is there a free closing line value tracker?
Yes. OddsFloor's tracker is free with an account and no card. A bet logged from the board is
graded against a sharp reference price captured at game start, and the tracker shows CLV per bet
and on average.
Can I track bets the board didn't flag?
Yes. A manual bet counts in your profit and loss, and you settle it yourself. CLV is measured
for bets logged from the board, where the tracker knows the market and can capture the close.
Does it grade in-play bets?
It grades the result. It doesn't compute CLV for an in-play bet, because scoring a live price
against a pregame close would measure the wrong thing.
