    Steady as she goes.

    This is an actively managed Fund that is market based, and we know it can be volatile. Going to show some charts in this thread, we'll break down the Fund and it's movements.

    Don't forget the Contrarian Runline Fund, bouncing from early -11 unit start, sitting at -3.65 units now. Expecting that Fund to go positive.

Oh & as I write this I just thought of one more great talent that KVB provides. He’s a gifted GIF poster as well regarding anything that’s relevant as a response, his sense of humor is priceless. That’s all I got.

    I heard KVB does not run the fund

    Is it possible he’s getting the plays from somebody else?

    Oh you did, did you?

    Ok, I admit it, my wife comes up with all the plays.



    Only one shot caller for the KVB MLB Contrarian Fund, that would be KVB.

    If you were to go contrary to the Contrarian Fund, what would that be called?

    In general, that would be betting with the public, as opposed to betting with the books.

    I am thinking that would be called steam? My terminology for the Contrarian Fund would be anti steam. I do agree that not all steam is created equal. So, if, a line is driven up to a point due to a definable factor like weather and the line gets to a certain point and now the line is going back down. This late movement? Is that steam or anti-steam? Makes a difference if big fish have manipulated the line for middle shots!

    KVB’s Contrarian fund is dog shit. Talks all this game but is in the red last I heard. Halfway through season no excuse, don’t give me the “variance is a bitch this season I’m three standard deviations away from my expected return”. No. You’re not.

    If you want the REAL Contrarian go to Pair of 5s thread here.

    https://www.sportsbookreview.com/for...l#post28732461

    A REAL WINNER. 5s is crushing mlb. He is up over 60 units, majority of his bets being 1 unit, occasionally 2 or 3. Successful in previous years too. KVB just a horny imposter who took a statistics class and can talk a bit. 5s is the real deal Contrarian.

    I think he posted after the Funds made a comeback.

    Went from -22 units to -3 units as quick is it had gone down.

    The Contrarian Fund is more than the plays offered, they are a glimpse into the market if you follow them.
