Odds Wizard is expected to be supplied with the bookie's major line odds: 1 - 1X - X - X2 - 2 in the soon coming release. At first stage, there will be bwin.com odds only.

Any suggestions as to functionality of OW / SW added with the line odds are welcome. Thanks.

I've always thought that this type of functionality would be very useful within OW. The ability to instantly see if there is value to be had without checking each and every game on a site like Oddschecker would be a huge time saver. If the fair odds generated by OW were favourable compared to the bookmakers odds, that cell in the table could be coloured green indicating a potentially good bet.

I also would like to see the line odds saved to the database so that over time a more reliable and possibly accurate method of performance analysis could be derived.

However, I'd be unhappy to see the UI get more cluttered than it is already. Making OW a full screen app and using the extra space for the bookmaker's odds could be one answer. Adding another option under the 'Odds' menu, called 'Bookmaker Odds', and changing the display to the right of the matches could be another answer.

Which other bookmaker's/exchanges or going to be included?

I'm looking forward to seeing the update.

Yep, that is essential. (IMO) it is the only way of seeing just how good OW is in predicting successful outcomes, ie using bookies odds you calculate how many winners OW should have generated and then compare that with the actual number of winners found.

Hi alex,great idea.this can only be good for the user.javascript:sm('

if i could put up a suggestion of www.betbrain.com it has most leagues covered and has the following info already on its pages.could it be scraped and downloaded in the same manner as the scores are just now? and compare probability to oddswiz probability and show with coloured cell as theuth has said?
maybe "if oddswiz prob>bookies prob+10%(user defined variable) then colour cell green"

H D A
Average Odds 2.39 3.16 2.95 93%
Highest Odds 2.51 3.25 3.15 98%
Probability 39% 29% 32%

hi alex, i think you would only need to scan the 1,X,2 market for speed of application because all odds markets are interlinked to a degree where overlays/underlays that show up in the 1,X,2 market should also appear in the asian,correct score and o/u markets etc. or if there is no overlay/underlay then oddswiz expectation and bookmakers agree,ignore match and move on.
I would also like to have on my wish list the ability to extract only games that kick off say Today<24 hrs,Today<12hrs,Today<6hrs, Today<3hrs and Today<1hr in the drop down box of leagues that are kick off time sorted not by league.if then an overlay/underlay is detected i could go back to teams own league for further research as required.
this should save a LOT of time having to scroll through each individual league and should ensure you dont miss that winning bet in that league you forgot to check! thanks.

Exporting the Bookmakers odds with Odds Wizard odds to Excel where the profit margin can easily be calculated and ranked for all leagues, would be appreciated.

Many thanks for propositions as of new feature. Of course, some of them will be implemented in the first release, and others somewhat later. New Odds Wizard v2.05 is going to be released by the end of this week.
