Pinnacle Historical Odds: 10 Years of Closing Lines
Pinnacle closing odds are the reference price of sports betting. Our database covers up to 10 years of them, openings and closings included, and you can explore it all through free backtests.
Why Pinnacle closing odds are the gold standard
Pinnacle runs some of the lowest margins in the industry and, unlike recreational bookmakers, welcomes winning players instead of limiting them. Professional bettors push serious volume through its markets, and every sharp wager nudges the price closer to the true probability. By the time an event starts, the closing line has absorbed all available information: injury news, lineups, weather and, above all, the opinions of the best-informed money in the world.
That is why analysts across the industry treat the Pinnacle close as the reference price, and why models, tipsters and strategies are ultimately judged against it through closing line value. If a betting idea cannot survive at Pinnacle closing prices, it is not an edge, it is noise.
What the database covers
Our historical odds database was built for one purpose: backtesting betting strategies at scale.
- Soccer: up to 10 years of history across major and minor leagues worldwide
- Basketball, tennis, American football, baseball, ice hockey, volleyball and esports: 5 years each
- Opening and closing prices on every matchup, so line movement from open to close is measurable
- Moneyline and 1X2 markets, spreads and Asian handicaps, totals and team totals where Pinnacle quotes them
- Real settled results, cleaned and matched to the odds that were actually offered
Each sport page lists its exact markets, leagues and history depth: browse the full sports coverage.
Explore it through backtests, not CSV dumps
The usual way to work with historical odds data is to buy CSV archives, then spend weeks normalizing team names, deduplicating lines and writing settlement logic before answering a single question.
The Strategy Builder inverts that workflow. The entire database sits behind a visual backtesting engine: you describe a strategy using 37 filters, covering odds ranges, line movement, team form, standings and situational context, and you get settled results in seconds: bet count, yield, maximum drawdown and a full equity curve, all computed on real closing prices.
Questions the data can answer
- How a market bias, like home favorites in a given league, has evolved season by season
- Whether prices that steam from opening to closing predict outcomes better than stable ones
- How a filter combination performs across every league of a sport, or in one league alone
- Whether a public strategy template holds up on the sport you care about

Frequently asked questions
Why use Pinnacle odds rather than another bookmaker's?
Pinnacle combines very low margins, high limits and a policy of welcoming winning players, so the best-informed money shapes its prices. Its closing odds sit closest to true probabilities, which makes them the best possible benchmark for judging a strategy.
Can I download the historical odds as CSV files?
No, and that is deliberate. The database is exposed through the backtesting engine, which answers your strategy questions directly with no data cleaning on your side. It is faster, always up to date and free to start.
Do you store opening odds as well as closing odds?
Yes, every matchup keeps both its opening and its closing price. That lets you filter on line movement between the two and measure a strategy's closing line value across the whole history.
