Frequently asked questions

How does Fade the Public Analytics calculate splits?

We aggregate publicly reported sportsbook handle on a sub-hourly cadence. See our methodology page for the full breakdown.

Which teams are the biggest fade targets right now?

The most-faded teams this season — by ATS record when they're a public favorite — are listed on the most-faded leaderboard.

Are these picks or just data?

These are data displays. We don't issue picks. Use the splits to inform your own bets — and bet responsibly.

Should I always fade the public?

No. Fading works when the public lean is heavy enough to push the line off the true number. On games with balanced action, there's no edge to fade — and even on heavy-public games, the fade is a long-term-EV play, not a one-game lock. See our methodology →
