Robinhood: margins and market data

Prediction market. Prices on Robinhood are set by traders on an order book, not by a bookmaker. The figure below is the typical two-sided spread across its markets — measured exactly as we measure a bookmaker's margin, but it means something different: nobody set it as a fee, and Robinhood's own charges (where it has any) are billed separately rather than built into the price. It is reported here, and deliberately not ranked against sportsbooks.

Across 761 markets observed in the last 7 days (5 sports, 6 leagues), Robinhood's median spread was 3.04%. Where at least five books priced the same market, Robinhood had the single best price 10.8% of the time.

Price only — fees not verified. The figure above is what Robinhood's prices imply, before any commission or fee it charges. Omenizer has not verified Robinhood's fee schedule, so it cannot be compared like-for-like with a venue whose costs we know, and it is left out of our cost comparison for the same reason. A low price with unknown fees is not the same as a low total cost.

In the last 90 days, Robinhood posted the board-leading price on 18 signals flagged by Omenizer's detection engine.

On an order book, the spread is what it costs to cross it: the gap between the best price to buy and the best price to sell. A 3.04% spread means the two sides of a typical Robinhood market together imply about 103.04% — the cost of trading in and straight back out. It is set by whoever is quoting at that moment, not by Robinhood, and it moves with liquidity.
