Trout Tout Track real tout ROI vs our public model picks.

Per-source pick-accuracy leaderboard. Sample-size shrunk (Bayesian), 95% confidence intervals. Negative lift means the source's calls have underperformed the sport-position baseline — that's a trout. Fade it.

NFL

Sources making the boldest player calls (high-confidence + strong sentiment, last 90d). Hot-take index sums signed conviction; red = bullish-loaded, green = contrarian/bearish.

What the columns mean

Lift
Shrunk point estimate of how much better (or worse) the source's calls performed vs the sport-position baseline. Positive = the source helped, negative = trout.
Hit rate
Win % on explicit picks, excluding pushes. 52.4% is breakeven vs -110 juice.
95% CI
Confidence interval around the point estimate. Wide bars = thin sample; thin bars crossing 0 (or 50%) = the source is statistically indistinguishable from noise.
n
Sample size — observations contributing to the estimate. n < 10 is flagged as a small sample (faded CI bar).
ROI
Return on investment if you'd faded (or followed) the source at -110 unit-flat. Reported in the per-source detail page.
CLV
Closing-line value — how much the line moved after the source's pick, in the source's direction (avg %). The strongest long-run skill signal.

Methodology. Lift is computed over a 14-day window after each episode published. Shrinkage uses an empirical-Bayes prior with pseudo-count 50 toward neutrality (lift = 0 or hit-rate = 50%). 95% CIs are Wald (lift) and Wilson (hit rate). Small samples (n < 10) appear but with faded CI bars.

Not investment / betting advice. Historical accuracy doesn't predict future performance, especially with thin samples. Use this as one signal among many.
