JS, I will try to answer your concerns about Dr. Zid program.
I followed your instructions and settings and entered 30 NY draws, then tried with 12 draws and got the same results..26 picks which includes doubles... 14 picks..no doubles. Why did you get 21 picks....no doubles??
The program has a mind of it's own. It just happened that I got 21 games when I posted. Doubles were not selected. You may want to write the creator of the program and ask Mike Knueppel the program details.
Why are others getting different number of picks/playing suggestions?
In my opinion the different playing suggestions depend on how many past numbers are entered and also the filter selections. Like if you check mark the doubles, you will get more numbers to play.
How can I copy and paste the Zid results...as I receive the Message..............."The pop up menu is disabled in this e book".
I keep my CA 30 results in a Notepad. I copy the the results then paste them into Zid program Previous Drawings in the following manner. Click in the Previous Drawings field with your left mouse switch, then hold down CTRL key and then hit v key.
I tested the ZID system in NY for previous 3 drawings and no hits... It seem thats the system does not work as well in NY as it does in Calif... Any other advice on how to get hits in NY?
What you need to do is experiment what works best for your State. I have tested many ways in CA by putting in different past draws. For instance, I start with 30 numbers put in, then if did not produce a winner by back testing, I delete the oldest number and use 29 numbers, and go thru all the numbers in that manner all the way down to 12. By doing it several times, with different numbers you may discover that NY predictions work best with 20 inputed numbers. So, if by running thru all the numbers from 30 to 12 and no winner was produced, then try switching the Hot/Cold selections around from 2 Hot/1 Cold, to 1 Hot/2 Cold. I test and check with combined data, Mid and Eve, or just either Mid or Eve. At times it brings in a winner with Combined, other times with just Mid or Eve.
In the words of my late lotto buddy from Locust Grove, VA he said: "Test, Test, Test before you Bet, Bet, Bet".
I done 6 days of back testing in Arizona, no winners anywhere. They use balls there. Did the same test in LA, they have computer picks and in the 6 day test I got 1 Box win. It seems to be producing winners in CA quite often with 30 number input.
Like I said, if you need further questions answered, you will have to write to MikeK at snohome dot com. I am just the program user. Hope that it answered some of you all concerns.
