Pinnacle sets the sharpest odds in the world — margin under 3%. We remove the vig and normalize to 100%: that's the Oracle. Where Polymarket prices deviate from the Oracle, Value Signals emerge. Delta from 3pp = Watch, from 5pp = Trade, from 10pp = Strong Signal.

Reading: Positive Δ = our model is higher than the market (Bayern undervalued). Negative Δ = market is higher (Bayern overvalued).

Methodology: Pinnacle is the sharpest live odds in the world — larger Δ usually indicates model error rather than real edge. Polymarket has thin liquidity on some markets. BETA, not a betting signal.
