Thanks for the welcome and great input. Hope I can contribute as I have time. Looks like I'm addicted to finding a system

that works... haha... winning anything big will just be a bonus.

Continue to test forward even if you have to go back a few drawings, this will not only test your system but train you how to best use it to produce winners.

I find what might be a bad decision for a single drawing can be a good decision in general if you are not trying to win a jackpot every drawing but simply trying win a jackpot eventually.

Hello, if you split a lottery in 4 parts, 4 sectors, industry will always have a zero or a number, and one or two more, then a sector will always have more numbers than others in bilhores sweepstakes, lotteries of 5.6 , ... 7 Of course you do not know which of the four sectors, but what happens then if a sector has zero or a number, you choose two numbers will always lose, and industry, which has two or more numbers to play only one number will always lose , we have to find this rotation system

I think you are heading in the right direction. You can see that all prediction methods, no matter how good they seem,

fluctuate. That's a fact of life for ALL lotteries. Therefore, you can't concentrate on one prediction method only, no

matter how successful it appears. Always have alternatives, preferably several. Backtrack them all. It is not uncommon

that wins come in clusters, one after another, and if you happen to detect a beginning of a cluster early, you can benefit

from it.... [ More ]

I agree backtesting has no real value in regards to what happends next. I only use it for testing

software.

I do track the stats for every filter, etc.. that I use but just to see how well the draws follow the

matrix. I am the digit man so to speak and do well using them as my primary filter. My software

includes many options from a full wheel to a filtered RNG. I may be posting a download link for the

newest version but it only includes power ball and mega millions games.

I undestand your skepticism towards backtrack. Still, I believe this is the best method

to verify performance of any system. While it is true that the past results do not guarantee

the future ones they do demonstrate certain trends (winning streaks, for example) that

can be used to one's advantage. I generally use backtrack going no farther than 30 draws

back to predict only the very next draw. After updating the stats with new numbers I backtrack

again. What backtrack only does i... [ More ]

Welcome to the board first off.

You will find a great deal of excellent people that share all sorts of data and ideas on how to try to tackle the monster we call the lottery. I agree in back testing seems to always force the system into either 1 of 2 groups, It works currently then tapers off or it is forced to work in past results and doesnt show great results gong forward.

What most of us I would assume agree on is systems will run hot and cold so having more then 1 and tracking them he... [ More ]

Hey guys, new to LP and playing the lottery in general. I got interested after seeing the 640m

jackpot a couple of weeks ago. I've always thought I had zero chance of winning but after spending

a few hours hacking up some code and testing some ideas I think my chances could be slightly better than

zero especially at hitting a 5-0. Anyway I've played 4 drawings including the big one and I've hit

a 3-0 and a 1-1 playing 20 tickets at each drawing. Not great but I'm happy so far because... [ More ]
