🏆 Sports Hedging Strategy
The System
Kalshi primary position on a sports-outcome event contract → DFS flex insurance (correlated player outcome) → optional in-game hedge triggered by a pre-defined live signal. All three legs sized and defined before tip-off.
Full System Breakdown
- Primary (Kalshi): Pick a market with clear edge — team total, player milestone, game outcome. Buy YES or NO based on your probability estimate. Size at 1–3% of bankroll.
- Insurance (DFS flex): Select a correlated player prop. If your Kalshi primary loses, this partially recovers. Cost should be <20% of primary max profit.
- In-game hedge (optional): Defined trigger you'll act on — not invented mid-game. When triggered, take the opposite side on Kalshi or add to the DFS leg.
- Exit rule: If the primary moves against you before halftime and your trigger hasn't fired, exit at 60¢ loss per contract max. Don't hold hoping.
