Files for tonight
FanDuel: the entries template (classic or single game). DraftKings: DKEntries.csv (Lineups > Edit Entries > Download) or a contest's DKSalaries.csv (Export to CSV) - classic or showdown. The site, sport and contest type are read from the file; when you have chosen them in the menu at the top, a file of another kind is caught before it is loaded. Each slate you load is kept: switch between them in the menu.
Games
| Game | Tip (ET) | Status | Total | Spread (favorite) | Locked |
|---|
Games lock by themselves at tip time. Tick Locked only if a game has started and tip times are unavailable. Type a total, or a spread like "DEN -4.5", then press Enter to use it in the model.

Players
Team trends
Tick Pick for players you want in the pool. Your picks are used when you select the pool on step 4, either added to the automatic pool or as the whole pool.
When a player sat
How each teammate did in games the player missed, biggest gains first.
What this team allows
Fantasy points per minute this team allows by position, against the league average. Shrunk toward average while games are few.
Build
Research Lab
Every strategy is scored on separate simulations drawn after selection.
Lineups
Upload the file with FanDuel's CSV edit tool. Don't open and re-save it in Excel. Every build is already kept for postgame scoring, and the file you download is recorded as what you entered; Freeze snapshot keeps one more copy now.
Late swap
After games start, download a fresh entries template from FanDuel (it holds your current lineups), upload it here, run the swap, then upload the result with FanDuel's CSV edit tool. Players in games that have started are never changed.

Odds
Our own fair odds, from SlateAtlasPro's models and box scores - not a sportsbook's prices. Type the line and price your sportsbook offers to see your chance and the expected profit per $1 at that price.
Games
Spread and moneyline: the home team's side. A positive expected profit (EV) means the price pays more than our chance says it should.
Player props
Fair line: the half-point line nearest an even bet by our odds. Ladder: our chance of reaching each mark. Whole-number lines can push (stake returned).
For entertainment and information: no result is guaranteed. 21+ only where sports betting is legal. If you or someone you know has a gambling problem, call 1-800-GAMBLER.
Postgame
Track record
Every build is kept as a snapshot and scored by itself once the slate's results are in (the next template upload fetches them). Entered is the strategy you downloaded for the site; a late-swap download keeps your entries as they finally stood.
Results
Contest results
After each slate, enter the winning score of every contest you played (FanDuel and DraftKings show it in the contest results). From three contests on, the app corrects its estimate of the winning score.
Exposure
Soft target and Sim-optimal % show how often a player is in simulation-optimal lineups (never above your exposure cap). Est. own % is estimated field ownership; Leverage is Sim-optimal % minus Est. own %, positive when the field under-plays him.
