How to bet with Stratos.Live

Pick a risk profile — Best Fit, Conservative, Balanced or Aggressive — then press Scan Live Sports. A scan prices every live game plus the upcoming games in your scan scope, and marks the ones that clear your rules. Nothing re-prices on its own: revisiting a page reads the shared snapshot, and only Scan or Refresh pulls current prices.

Value / edge

How much extra this price pays versus the fair market price. +3% means you're being paid 3% more than you should be.

Win chance

The market's true chance of this bet winning, once the sportsbook's built-in margin is stripped out.

Books agreeing

How many sportsbooks priced this bet. More books agreeing means a more reliable price.

Qualified

This pick passed every rule in your risk profile and is ready to bet. Greyed-out picks didn't.

Feed badge

Where this price came from — the main odds feed, or the backup if the main one was down.

Price history

The small line under a bet is real price movement. Moving your way means you may be late; moving away means you beat the crowd.

NO BET

If nothing clears your rules, we say so. That's a real answer, not a failed scan.

1. Add legs. Tap + Add on any pick, or let Build it for me assemble a slip. Your parlay re-prices the whole slip every time a leg changes, including the correlation discount on same-game legs.
2. Hand it off. The handoff buttons open the market at your sportsbook. Need the wording a book expects for a multi-leg slip? Use the slip builder.
3. Check the price before you confirm. Live prices move in seconds. If the book shows worse odds than the board, re-scan rather than chase it.
4. Set your stake at the book. Stratos never asks you to invent a stake — the amount you actually risk is the one you type into the sportsbook, and that is the figure your results use.

A handoff is a suggestion, not an order. Nothing is wagered until you confirm it at the sportsbook, and only confirmed bets count in your results.

Every handoff writes a slip to my tickets. Connect the book on accounts and your real stake, payout and settlement date sync in automatically; where a book can’t report them, the slip stays marked awaiting confirmation instead of guessing a number. Anything unconfirmed is left out of settled profit and ROI.

• Win rate

  Settled bets won ÷ settled bets, so a hot slate can't hide a cold month.

• ROI

  Profit against everything you staked, not against your best day.

• Profit

  Net return across every settled wager, from confirmed book payouts only.

• CLV

  Closing-line value: your price versus the market's last price. Consistently positive CLV is the strongest sign the process is working, even before results catch up.
