2% max recommended unless otherwise noted. 1% max recommended for soccer.
Some like taking futures bets. I only recommend allocating 10% in total to all futures bets, placing 0.2 units per bet. In other words, if your bankroll/investment for sports betting is $10,000, you would place $20 per futures bet, and so forth. Here are the official recommended futures bets for this year's NFL at current best odds.
