Oh Well! Thank you anyway.Regardles of how I use filters, I never use them by random selection, I always do it according to my observation of the past draws and which filter values already came out just before the draw that I am trying to predict.I guess that I need to take a very good look at you program and find out by myself, what it can do.Otherwise there are two more programs that have some chance of being helpfull.Thank you very much.

Still we talk about the same thing I think.You want to predict what possible values Low-High or Odd-Even might have at the next draw, right? Assume for a moment you have predicted them, ok? Now what? If you plan to use them as filters to whichever combinations you have, then you say the same thing I do: apply filtering. Do you have another use of these filters??May I ask you a simple question: do you filter using random values for Low-High etc? It makes no sense to me when you say ...that's not... [ More ]

No that's not what I mean at all, that's old hat, I have done that many times, that's the old way, I have done that many many times, that's not predicting, that's filtering the combos, I know about filtering the old way, have done many times, I am not talking about filtering like that.I am talking about filtering with REAL PREDICTIONS .You can take the 1000 straight combos and filters all combos out except for HLH+OOE, but that is not going to give you the numbers that have the winning combo,...

lottoarchitect — Mon, 25 Oct 2004 16:38:44 GMT

We say exactly the same thing in different words.When you say HHL+EOE=18 combinations, it is equivalent to filter all 1000 combos of a Pick 3 game with the above filters and you'll get those 18 combos to play.Actually, the theory behind any filter is to predict what might come for that filter (one or more possible results).However, you cannot know when you'll miss one of those filters. In this case, how can you know when to play 125 combos instead of 18

LANTERN — Mon, 25 Oct 2004 16:24:59 GMT

I mean something else.There is more than one way of using filter patterns, I have tried the regular way as in your example with The Crunch 2 and P34 Lotto.A better way is to try to predict the coming of the actual filter patterns themselves.Like for example you want to know which filter pattern(s) will be coming next on the next draw or on the next 1 to 3 draws.There are 8 combinations of High-Low and there are also 8 combinations of Even-Odd.If you know in advance which combinations of High-Low...

lottoarchitect — Mon, 25 Oct 2004 15:47:38 GMT

Let me understand what you mean by filter patterns.You want to set some filters eg accept only Low-High: 2-1 Odd-Even: 0-3 1-2?The result would be tickets that fall on the above categories only? This is very easy to do. If you mean something else, let me know.

LANTERN — Mon, 25 Oct 2004 15:42:44 GMT

Apagogeas.I am thinking about trying to predict filter patterns for the pick 3 instead of the numbers themselves, it might be easier and or it might help with predicting the numbers, the key filters are High-Low and Even-Odd. Such as High-Low+Even-Odd.Any ideas on this?By predicting such you get a group of nuimbers or combos from 8 up to 27 depending on the particular combination of those filters.Can your program be made to predict filter combinations such as those

Well, Maryland the HCD is a prediction engine that generates numbers to play. As there is not such a system that always finds all correct numbers among 7-10 suggested numbers, it is not of use if you plan to use it as is. More often you have all numbers among 15-20 or more which can be a realistic target. But such sizes are quite expensive to play. This means the system is not so good to use as a stand-alone system (as it happens with every number prediction engine). For this reason, the additio... [ More ]

I know it's a tough thing to think of being all the work you put into the system but it could also be profitable to you. If any other members have the same idea please voice it maybe we could sway apagogeas in that direction.

At the import wizard, the bottom selections are to omit certain numbers displayed in the text file.You don't need to delete any information from your text file. Set the skip mode to Beginning of each line to remove the draw# index and set the following parameter to 1. Enable the date option and set it's format accordingly. Note the index of the draw# is not used and the program will place the draw to its correct position based on the date provided.

retxx, this would be harsh to do. The program designed to allow several approaches so you can find the one (or more) that provide better results and use them. The easiest way to begin with is to use the HCD system and produce the most probable numbers to come (and play the numbers in a wheel). The other systems (number groups - rejection filters) dive in more analysis to allow sensible filtering. All concepts described in the help file - when how to use something.

Some people asked how someone can reject previous draws. Well, the rejection filter Common appearances compares directly your tickets with any draw which has been drawn 1-250 draws before.To remove history draws from your tickets, you have to set the common appearances filter to Accept all values except the maximum one (use by 1 draw filter). If your lottery has 5 numbers (eg. 5/45) then values 0-4 should be set to Yes and value 5 to No. This should be done for every range 1-250 of Common appe... [ More ]

I could include KENO as well in this version but there are technical difficulties and I decided not to add support for KENO now. If I did, then the performance of the system will degrade significantly and I prefer to have a system that works very good as it is, rather to support KENO and perform badly.Perhaps I'll create a specific version for KENO only but no plans are for this now or in the near future and only if I bypass those technical difficulties. Someone else asked for this too but the m... [ More ]

Can already tell it needs to be a 30 day fully functional trial except for the wheels. The mental investment is too high for 20 openings, you're going to have to get people using the product so they want to continue when it expires. This clearly isn't a program you just open and follow the prompts. Would suggest an interface like this guy uses http://www.singlix.org/download/combinator.html his only makes smart quick picks, but it's easier to understand from previous experience without the lea...

No-one mention wheels number groups= intelligent filtering so far. No-one mention algorithms and HCD reports. Noone have mention anything about the amazing printing system included.

Also, several controls (combo-boxes etc) have specific pop-up menus.I have a .pdf version of the help file (no images included) which is supplied with the purchased program.

You don't get Details until you right click on the line only then does the Details tab appear. Also HCD doesn't appear in the Help index. Gonna need a walk through for several scenarios to give users a comfort level. Maybe hover help boxes you can turn on and off.

The HCD auto-picks numbers. Generate some reports to see the quality of the produced numbers.The procedure is as follows:Choose a wheel you want to use. Then launch the HCD system (at the Details tab of wheel manager).Perform some reports and observe the quick-picks generated by the HCD system. If you find them satisfactory, click on Generate button in HCD and the prediction of your current settings will be used in your wheel.Back in Wheel manager, save this wheel and proceed in Stage 1 calcul...

Does Lotto Architect have ANY option to just pick the numbers for me, or is it pure analysis and I always have to pick them myself?Thanks...

lottoarchitect — Sun, 25 Jul 2004 14:38:59 GMT

The simplest way to begin is to pick a wheel and run several HCD reports to get optimal results (those are most closely to the wheel parameters you choose).Then, save your wheel and proceed in calculations (stage 1).This is the simplest strategy you can use

I sort of agree as to the 30 days also. I find it tough right now as I have used it or opened it 9 times. It will be gone before i can comprehend it so I can at least see some results.

Morocco and MarylandI have not tried the program yet, but if 20 trials means that a trial is from the time that you open the program untill you close it, then that is better than 30 days, all that you have to do is keep the program open for as long as you want and don't close it until you understand how to use it, in other words a trial can be 3 days if you keep the program open for 3 days before you close it, unless that is not how it works.As I said, I downloaded it, but have not used it yet,...

The question isn't about the depth of the program and all the great features it offers, it's more about that it looks a bit difficult to understand , or once you understand the system . Perhaps, within the help pull down menu, a topic and walk thru of building your strategy with the options offered item by item. I'm not sure the best way to convey the ease of use. Maybe so much time has been spent looking at each tree that the forest wasn't looked at. My last intent is to be negative, it is... [ More ]

Well, I know it is not a simple program. I put my best efforts to maintain the quality of the tools included and still be amanageable program. If it was simple, I would just duplicate programs that already exist. When I first started developing this software, my aim was to find tools that can assist me in more accurate predictions. The results is what you see and there are still more to come.In fact, it looks a bit difficult to understand but it has a very sensible structure. All you have to do

It obviously has had alot of work put into it. However, I feel more work is required to facilitate ease of use and understanding for the average person. The type of person who can understand it and has the ability to use it is very limited. This will be reflected in the amount of sales you can expect to generate. I can only suggest, the program be made to easily generate picks and download current lotto numbers in a very simple format (pretty much having it all done for you) and then let the cus... [ More ]

It is better to include dates with the draws as this ensures their correct position in the history file and also avoids duplicates when re-importing new draws. This cannot be tested if dates are not provided.If dates not included, then they are entered as they appear in the text file. The last draw displayed in the history draw manager (in the program) is the latest one. So, the first draw in your text file will be the oldest one.Dates can be of any format DD/MM/YY (2 or 4 digits for YY) MM/DD/Y... [ More ]
