FanDuel hedge calculator

An equal-result hedge divides the original potential return by the opposite outcome’s decimal price. That gives the additional stake needed to equalize net results, after subtracting both stakes. This works only for two mutually exclusive, exhaustive outcomes with matching settlement rules; it can produce an equalized loss.

Formula and worked example

Hedge stake = original stake × original decimal price ÷ hedge decimal price.

A $100 position at +300, hedged on the opposite outcome at 2.50, needs $160. Either outcome produces a modeled $140 net after both stakes.

Default example output	Value
Hedge stake	$15.7143
Net profit either outcome	$4.2857
