Trading Tools

Professional risk management tools for event contract trading. The same tools power the prediction sections across the Akte Bundesliga network — shared infrastructure, one codebase.

Kelly Criterion Calculator

Live

The Kelly Criterion calculates the mathematically optimal position size given your estimated probability and the market price. Professional traders use fractional Kelly (typically ¼ to ½) to reduce variance — the theoretical optimum is too aggressive for most portfolios. Learn the basics →

Expected Value Calculator

Live

Expected Value tells you how much you expect to gain or lose per trade over the long run. Positive EV means the trade is mathematically worth making — but only if you size it correctly. A +$3 EV trade sized at full Kelly can still bankrupt you through variance.

// shared infrastructure
One codebase, 22 club sites + closelook.soccer
The tools on closelook.soccer and the Akte Bundesliga network share the same infrastructure. We don't build things twice.
Data Pipeline

The Odds API → Workers → Sites

Pinnacle, Polymarket, and Kalshi odds flow through a central Cloudflare Worker, cached in KV, and consumed by all 22 club sites and closelook.soccer.

Intelligence

SportMonks → GitHub Actions → Static

Squad data, match stats, H2H, injuries, and form via SportMonks API, processed by GitHub Actions cron, baked into static JSON per club site.

Tools

Shared JS → All Sites

Kelly calculator, EV tools, and the Oracle run the same JavaScript across closelook.soccer and every Akte site. Update once, deploy everywhere.
