NFL MVP Top-4
Buys the 4 preseason NFL MVP favorites, equal-split, entered at the real Polymarket volume-weighted average price over the first ~7 days after the market opens, held until the award is announced.
Backtested and allocation-capped — a historical result, never a promised edge.
Live · strategy average · 4 picks, equal-weightedCurrent price: Polymarket US
Equal-weighted average of every pick's real odds. Each range shows whoever was actually favored at ITS start, tracked through to now — not today's picks rewound. Not yet weighted by real dollars, since no position is bought into this strategy today; once a real purchase exists, this line becomes that position's real dollar value over time instead.
Real backtested result if this strategy had exited at an interim checkpoint, compared to actually holding to the final resolution — 2/2 profitable at final, avg final ROI +142.0%.
No consistent early-exit edge across the 2 real seasons tested — 2024's real Week 6 peak (+6.2%) beat its own final (+2.5%), but 2025's real final (+281.9%) was itself the peak. Hold-to-end is the default until more seasons say otherwise.
HISTORICAL BACKTEST — NOT A GUARANTEE. A real recommendation drawn from a small number of past seasons, never a promised edge going forward.
Live price for every market this strategy currently tracks — each line is one selection.
