Chasing the line was 0-4 last night, so I have decided to make a small change in my implementation. I am only going to use games where the line moves at least 25 cents. With this new parameter it was 0-3 last night and 13-9 for the month. For 7 years it has won 59.5% with ROI of 6.7% almost 4000 plays. The Sept numbers are slightly less, but still ROI of 5.5%

HOU, SF, TB are picks for today

Total experiment win another last night and now 51 days in with almost 100 picks...
58.5% winners, +14u and 14.3% ROI
Pretty solid performance, wish I would have found it earlier in the year to have a larger sample size to evaluate.

Possibilities...

ATL/PHI Over 9.5 - The ball was flying last night in philly and its another hot and humid night with a slight breeze out to center. Eflin was rocked by ATL this year pitching 5.2 innings and giving up 17 runs (12 earned). ATL roster is hitting a career .367 against him with 6 doubles and 7 HR with those homers coming from 6 different players. Although he’s pitched okay since becoming a starter again those 3 solid starts have come against the Mets twice and the marlins once. Keuchel on the other hand has only given up 2 runs in his last 5 starts but he’s given up 39 base runners in those starts (Mets X2 , Marlins, white Sox, and a currently slumping Nats offense). I think this really shapes up for an over.
CIN - Sonny has been arguably the best pitcher since the break and he is going up against the Mariners with Marco gonzalez who’s given up 11 (9 earned) in his last two. Enough said.

So I analyzed 7 years worth of ML ranges and found the following
The only range for dogs that has shown a profit is +115 or less 5.5% ROI
The vast majority of games are between -115 & -145 show no consistent profit either way
The favs have been profitable in several ranges but by far the real money maker has been the -210 to -250 range

View attachment 42909

Also I checked it by month and the big favs do best in Aug but just as good in Sept as any other month over the past 7 years

-210 >= line >= -250 and season >= 2013 and ...

Absolute best ranges

For dogs, if you bet every dog when fav was less than -117 over 7 years, you would have cashed 53% of the time for 186.8u and 6.6% ROI with over 2800 games

View attachment 42910

For favs, you would have made the most money from -207 to -225, winning 75% for 101.5u and 9.9% ROI through 479 games

View attachment 42911

But for the highest ROI, you would wanna play line from -279 to -297 and win 86% for 37.8u and 16.6% ROI through only 80 games

View attachment 42912

I used the rounding function and did not try moving lines up/down manually. This is moving the line in 18 point increments and centering the results. 20 points was a little big as -200 seems to be the bookies friend so 18 worked around that number

Just for grins, I drilled down tighter to within 6 point moves and the range from -285 to -291 has won 91.4% for 23% ROI!

For the dogs...what if they open a fav of -117 or less than flip to a dog? Is this based on open or closing line? Thank you for what you do everyday...much appreciated[
