CONTRARIANL > 1
STRATEGYIf you remember one number from this blog, make it leverage. Leverage = (your ownership of a player) / (field ownership of that player). It's the most underused metric in DFS.
Leverage > 1: contrarian
You own a player at a higher rate than the field. When that player hits, you separate.
Leverage < 1: chalk-fading
You own a player at a lower rate than the field. When that player misses, you separate.
