'Hot' Numbers in Lotto
You always hear about 'Hot' numbers. What are they?
'Hot' is just a label that players apply to certain numbers -- ones which seem to be winning more often than an average number.
Lottery Director avoids terms like 'Hot' and 'Cold'. When analyzing numbers, it gives facts about how the numbers are performing. It reports a number's Wins, Trends, Consistency, Patterns and other factors.
You see your game's information on "Overview" screens. If you want more details, you can "drill down" into it. Often, you can do this with one mouse click.
Another way to get "Overview" information is:
... First, click to open your 'Fast Track' Game Manager. View your game in the 'Fast Track' manager, and leave that window open.
... Then, click to open the same game in your Lotto program. View it there, in a separate window.
Now you will have two windows open -- one window shows you the "big picture" of your game, while you examine the details in the second window.
That is an example of how to get simple, fast, overview information -- and at the same time see the real details about your game.
Terms like 'Hot' and 'Cold' are not very descriptive. They do not show the inner workings of a number. They are vague, ambiguous terms -- even at their best. They're a simplistic way of looking at a game.
If a dozen or more numbers are simply 'hot', and another dozen are 'cold' -- with about the same amount of numbers being somewhere in between -- the player is not close to making a choice for wheeling or other play.
Software players that treat numbers as simply 'Hot, Average, or Cold' can overlook some important factors:
That's why Lottery Director classifies numbers differently. It gives you facts instead of labels.
How Lottery Director Reports: With your scanning options, you can set any range of draws. You can set Win Levels to test the numbers in the draws. Then, Lottery Director will scan the draws automatically for the trends, consistency, patterns, next draw winners, repeat numbers, positions, digits, consecutives, movements, pairs, triples, and other factors. You can set your visual and audio options to 'flag' the results.
By doing this, you reduce an enormous amount of data -- down to the facts you need. Then you can use those facts for wheeling a new set of numbers. It's far more informative than looking at a 'Hot/Cold' list.
However . . . Suppose you just want to look at simple wins. You just want to see which numbers are winning the most or the least. You have screens that show you this.
You have five principal screens for looking at a Lotto number's wins.
(Note: You can click on your Screen Samples below, to see pictures of these screens.)
1. MAIN Screen. Start your Lotto program, and select your game. You'll be at your MAIN screen. Your MAIN screen shows each number's total wins in the game's entire history.
As you enter each new draw's numbers, your totals are updated automatically.
2. Sort All Numbers. Go to your DATA menu, and select 'Sort all Numbers'. This screen shows each number's total wins (like your MAIN screen), and it sorts the numbers according to their wins. You can easily see which numbers have the least or most wins. The last draw's winning numbers are highlighted in Red.In addition to these details, you can also view the total wins on a graphic screen.
3. Current 100 Winners. At your DATA menu, select 'Current 100 Winners'. This is similar to the 'Sort' screen, except it looks just at the last 100 numbers that were drawn. It shows the most recent activity in the game. The last draw's winning numbers are highlighted in Red.In addition to these details, you can also view the last 100 wins on a graphic screen.
4. Index of Overdue Numbers. At your DATA menu, select 'Index Overdue Numbers'. This screen reports an 'Overdue Index' for each number, based on recent wins. (See your screen example below.)It monitors each number's series of losing draws during the period of its last 1 to 3 winning draws.
- An Index of 100 identifies a number with average wins during this time.
- Indexes over 100 identify numbers that have won less often than the average -- and also measure how much less the number has been winning.
- Indexes below 100 identify numbers that have won more often than the average -- and also measure how much more the number has been winning.
For example, an Index of 300 indicates that the number has gone three times as long between its wins as an average number. The Index grows higher, until the number wins again.
As you view the screen, you can select Automatic Scanning. Lottery Director will scan the game, and will show you the levels which the 'Overdue Index' has reached. You can see how high the Index has grown, before numbers tended to win again -- throughout the game's history. And of course you see how high each number's Index is now.
5. ZOOM. At your MAIN screen, select 'ZOOM (Zoom In for Close Look)'. Your ZOOM screen gives you the most detailed profile of each number's wins. You have a separate ZOOM screen for each number.On your ZOOM screen, you can set a range of draws. Then you can step through them -- one draw at a time, or five draws at a time.
You can see exactly how any number has been winning and trending. You see this for each individual number -- by itself, and paired with other numbers. (You have three ZOOM samples below.)
