Why exchange prices are useful
Exchange prices can help estimate a market-implied probability that is not set by a traditional sportsbook margin. That makes them useful for model builders, trading screens, and odds comparison tools.
- Compare sportsbook margin against exchange prices
- Flag price gaps across books
- Use exchange prices as a second benchmark beside Pinnacle
