Why do lottery systems start out hot and then go cold?

Ok! I was just curious. Thanks for responding! LOL I'm not even sure what direction I'm taking.....just trying to look from all angles.

I did at one time. I found nothing worthwhile. This should not be taken as a warning, tho. I have no idea what direction you are taking in developing your algorithym and tracking the numbers in the position they fall might be worth your time and effort. I did not find a useful pattern in how the numbers fell and that was my main criteria.

yea, this happened to me to. I had a very good system that was very hot and I was going to post it on LP but after a couple more weeks of testing it began to go cold and then colder....it still hits every week or so but not as much as before. Also i had another system the was super hot once first found and then got pretty cold later on.

So, I guess its cause the lotto is ever changing and you need to make new updates to change your system to keep those super hot hits.

Powerball have the videos on their website under powerball winning numbers menu at www.powerball.com.

And TN website post their pick 3 numbers videos on their website too.

Hi Editgap , I understand what you are saying about difference between numbers as I have been playing around with an idea similar to that just on paper for awhile and have found it to be very interesting how sometimes it can predict all 5 numbers for pick 5 and sometimes 3 or 4 numbers out of 5 , I did actually win on 4 #s and numerous 3# prizes using this wheeling #'s too , back testing proved the 5 #'s and I also missed a 5# draw recently ( kicking myself LOL )

I would love to see / try you... [ More ]

Hey Gasmeterguy,

Just curious reading this post.......do you track the numbers by the order they fall? I'm wondering if it would be worth it to watch the draws every evening and chart this info (to look for any patterns) as well as my usual way of charting.

To be frank, I never had a ystem that starts out hot. I keep think two to three months in, my system is going to pay off soon.

Good question. They might just as well start out cold.

What is happening is probably that they found a system that gives good results in the beginning and think that's how it usually goes

If they find a system giving bad results in the beginning when testing, they scrap it fast.

Another aspect to be considered is how we go about developing our systems. We tend to use the last 40, 50, or 100 drawings to mathematically find a way to predict the next drawing. Only if, in the future, those same numbers fall into the same positions will our system perform as expected.

As the drawings continue, our numbers fall into other positions, other columns but our system remains static. To us it appears that our algorithym has gone cold whereas in fact our algorithym was never hot .... [ More ]

With the number of states with lotteries and the variety of games being ofered, anyone can develop a system , come to a conclusion or theory first, and then keep back testing until they fnd something that appears to prove them right.

Never forget these things, system sellers sell the sizzle, not the steak , and they know their target audience is people who sincerely want to believe there is something out there that works.

There is a pattern. I see the same thing you do and that is if a number is drawn, it is like if fits. Then you ask yourself how come this number fits so perfectly. Because it covered the required difference between numbers. It found the right corner of the bellecurve. It had the right amount of cold and hot numbers. I think I figure why it does that in my new system I can't wait to see if I am right.

There's also another question that I meant to ask in my original post but forgot. I've been tracking two lotteries for a little over a year now, the PowerBall lottery and the Arizona Pick 6 lottery. And sometimes it actually seems like I can track a pattern from one draw to another, or it seems that I can detect a pattern in a series of draws. And I was wondering if anybody else has seen this phenomena in their systems

This is a good question. I have a system that I thought had high expections that I have been using since the new powerball matrix.

I was shocked that I gave up on the system. The positive side is I came up with another system. It seems full proof for now and I am excited.

Think out the guy you learn a thousand ways no to make a lightbulb. But this is what I think, find a problem you need to solve and find a way to solve it.

Because it is not flexible. How one define flexible is within the built of the system itself. Within the range of a game, say in Pick 3 the range is 1 - 1,000 there are trends, and behaviors, along with basic components of the game. When studying it the percentage of winning combination comes from sub-group within the range. Which then, the system one come up with have to participate more picks from the larger percentage range than so from the lower percentage range. This said, the system have t... [ More ]

Two factors at play with a consistant method applied consistantly.

All games of chance are a roller coaster ride of highs and lows. You start to play and it's all up hill until you win, then there is a drop off, maybe some small wins, then another win on a smaller rise, another dip, over and over until we return to the beginning. Call it enthropy, return to equlibirum, that's how systems work in a negative expectation game.

Types of draws come in clusters. Notice how in Pick-3 all di... [ More ]

my professional opinion 90% of the system that we all use seems to stay cold,,,

my system can tell you what numbers will hit,,,but it cant say which state,,,

thats why if you have family in other states you can build wealth,,,

Or perhaps as we try to fine tune the system, do we fine tune it to a point that it actually cools down?

Thats what I think too.

Get too much into analyzing the numbers.

four4me — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 15:51:22 GMT

because

numbers that are hot tend to stay hot for a while and then become lukewarm or cold.

numbers that are lukewarm tend to stay lukewarm and then become hot or cold.

numbers that are cold tend to stay cold or become lukewarm or hot.

And then they change ball sets and it all starts over again if they change ball sets for every draw there is no way to know which system will keep working.

Every system has to depend on those bouncing balls. Sure the numbers are ''suppose'' to come out, but one bump of another ball against another will throw the number off in a different direction. Bouncing balls. Can't win with them, can't win without them.

Sometimes I actually hit myself on the head for not betting one up or one down. I must say I have to stop hitting myself on the head like that or I'll be in serious trouble soon.

We try hard everyday to get it right, we have the systems,... [ More ]

Why do lottery systems start out hot and then go cold?

ArtVandalay — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 07:04:38 GMT

I've been a member of Lottery Post for awhile, now, and I've noticed that there seems to be a pattern concerning lottery systems. Funny, but when people start a new lottery system or come up with a new lottery system, they often say When I first started using this system, it was really hot, but after a while it seems to have cooled down some. And I have to wonder why that is? Why does a lottery system seem to start out hot and then seem to cool down? Is it just a problem with perception? Do we b... [ More ]
