How this calculator works

Hedging a bet means placing a shumë e bastit on the opposing outcome after your original position has already been placed (usually after the original has moved in your favour). The goal is to guarantee a fitim or reduce maksimumi loss regardless of which outcome occurs.

For the "lock in equal fitim" mode, the calculator finds the hedge shumë e bastit that makes both scenarios return the same net fitim. The formula is: hedge shumë e bastit = (original shumë e bastit x original odds) / (1 + hedge odds - 1), which simplifies to: original win return / hedge odds.

Concretely: a 50-unit original shumë e bastit at 4.00 returns 200 if it wins (150 fitim). To hedge at 1.40, the i nevojshëm shumë e bastit = 200 / 1.40 = 142.86. If the original wins: fitim = 200 - 50 - 142.86 = 7.14. If the hedge wins: fitim = 142.86 x 1.40 - 50 - 142.86 = 7.14. Both scenarios return the same fitim.

The "guarantee no loss" mode calculates the hedge shumë e bastit needed so that neither outcome results in a loss. This is the break-even hedge. For the example above, any hedge shumë e bastit that covers the original 50-unit investment while the original side returns surplus qualifies.

The "custom shumë e bastit" mode lets you fut any hedge amount and see the resulting fitim/loss scenarios side by side. This is useful when you want to partially hedge rather than fully lock in a result.

Note that hedging always reduces maksimumi upside in exchange for certainty. The right amount to hedge depends on your risk tolerance and the size of the in-play price move since your original bet was placed.

Pyetje të Shpeshta

When should I hedge a bet?

Hedge when your original zgjidhion has moved significantly in your favour and you want to secure some fitim before the ngjarje concludes. Common scenarios include a futboll team winning at half time and you want to guarantee a return regardless of the second half result.

Does hedging reduce my profit?

Yes. By placing a shumë e bastit on both outcomes, you are spending additional money. The locked-in fitim will always be less than your maksimumi potential upside from the original bet alone.

Can I hedge a parlay?

Yes. If the final leg of a parlay is pending, you can hedge the last leg on the opposing outcome. Use the original potential parlay payout as your "original shumë e bastit" and the last-leg odds as the hedge odds.

What is partial hedging?

Partial hedging places a smaller shumë e bastit on the opposing outcome than a full lock would require. It reduces exposure without fully locking in fitim, leaving some upside on the original bet.

Is hedging the same as arbitrage?

No. Arbitrage places both bets simultaneously before the ngjarje from separate bookmakers. Hedging places the second bet after the first has already been made, typically when the position has moved in your favour.
