Line movement & steam — common questions

What does it mean when a betting line moves?

A line moves when books change the price after opening — usually because money is coming in on one side, or new information (injuries, weather, lineups) arrives. A shortening price means support is piling in; a drifting price means the market is turning against that side.

What is a steam move?

A steam move is a sharp, fast, coordinated move across many books at once, usually driven by respected money. It signals that informed bettors have hit that side hard. We rank the biggest moves so you can see where the money is going.

Should I bet before or after the line moves?

If you agree with a side, betting before it moves gets the better number and beats the closing line — the strongest predictor of long-term profit. Chasing a move after it happens usually means a worse price. Pair this with the Value Finder to confirm there's still an edge.

How to read this: the open is the earliest sharp-consensus price we recorded; now is the latest. Prob move is how far the de-vig win probability has shifted (in percentage points) — a bigger move means the market is more convinced. A line coming in (shortening) is money backing that side; a line drifting out is money against it. Snapshots are roughly hourly, so this is genuine line movement, not tick-level steam. Movement is information, not a guarantee — pair it with the Value Finder. 18+. Gamble responsibly.
