The signals that matter
No single metric tells the whole story. Read these together, and always check the sample size behind them.
| Settled picks | How much history backs the record. More settled picks means less luck in the numbers. |
| ROI | Profit per unit staked. The truest measure of an edge — but only with enough sample size. |
| Win rate | How often picks win. High win rate at short odds can still lose money, so read it next to ROI. |
| Average odds | The price range a tipster plays. Higher average odds usually means a lower win rate by design. |
| Recent form | Momentum over a recent window. Useful context, but never a substitute for the long-term record. |
| Sport & market focus | Where the tipster specialises. A focused record is easier to trust than scattered one-off bets. |
| Void rate | How often picks get cancelled or voided. A high void rate can quietly distort a headline ROI. |
| Your personal impact | How this tipster's picks actually performed in your own Pick Vault — the signal that matters most to you. |
How TipStaq keeps it honest
Every verified record is built on published picks, locked timestamps and reviewed settlements — with no silent edits. Sample size is shown next to every metric so a hot month never gets mistaken for a proven edge. Read more in how we verify tipsters.
Frequently asked questions
Is a high win rate enough to follow a tipster?
No. A high win rate at short odds can still lose money over time. Always read win rate next to ROI and the number of settled picks behind it.
How many settled picks should I look for?
More is better. TipStaq does not rank a tipster by ROI until they have at least 25 settled picks, because smaller samples are dominated by luck.
Should I subscribe straight away?
Not until the record earns it. Follow first, watch the free picks, track them in your Pick Vault, and only then consider monthly premium access to that tipster.
