Also called: EV, positive EV, +EV
How to interpret it
Per unit staked, expected value equals win probability multiplied by net profit when winning, minus loss probability multiplied by the unit at risk.
A positive calculation depends entirely on the probability input and price being accurate. It does not guarantee a profit in any sample.
Limits and responsible use
- Model error, stale prices, limits, void rules, correlation, and estimation uncertainty can make a displayed estimate incomplete or wrong.
Do not use an EV label to justify chasing, borrowing, or exceeding a preset limit. Recheck the exact market and live price before acting.
