Thanks Dr San! I'm having a little trouble following what you're suggesting. Could you perhaps provide an example, or point me to a resource

use doubles as filter, group of frequencies and cycle the digits from 0 to 9 in position, positional patterns, is much better than vtrac

mitachoo,

You Could Always Stick With The Midday/Evening Trends.

Play Single VT's During the Day Double VT's in the evening.

Eventually,A Double VT Is Due To Hit Midday And Single VT At Night.

I'd Most Likely Go With The Single VTrac at Night To Hit Before The Day Double VT.

It's Rare For Double VTracs To Hit More Than 2 Consecutive Day Draws.

Mitachoo,maybe I'm reading your post wrong. You are showing v-tracs

0,1,2,3 or 1,2,3,4. That's a count of 4 v-tracs. Should be 5 v-tracs.

Maybe that's where your problem lies. If i missed something ,sorry,

wasn't intentional.

VTrac Draw Numbers

1 0 5

2 1 6

3 2 7

4 3 8

5 4 9

Part 3A - Results Using VTRAC Digit Frequency

Using a VTRAC Digit Frequency Strategy, I found that using a window of 14 previous draws yield the best results; I can get to a -35% ROI with the conventional payout of $500 for a straight win (+16.5% with the non-conventional/online payout of $900), so I think I'm on the right track here. What's biting me is the lack of VTRAC Doubles I mentioned earlier. Recall that my method of selecting a VTRAC to be played entails use of the three most fr... [ More ]

Part 3 - Results

NOT what I expected. Running my optimization macro overnight was not necessary. Regardless as to where I set PPL, VPR, and VPN, the most boxed hits came from choosing the hottest VTRAC. It didn't really matter where I set everything else. A way simpler answer than I expected.

In trying to fine-tune the above process to improve the results, I stumbled upon something even simpler that gives way better results; counting the frequency of all individual VTRAC digits i... [ More ]

Good luck, I'm hoping you can put it all together for some consistent results.

Part 2B - My Initial Strategy for Determining Best VTRAC for Next 7 Draws

Using the knobs discussed in Step 2A, here's my initial strategy:

I counted all VTRAC Pairs from the last PPL (7) drawings and assumed the optimal VTRAC for the next 7 draws would have all its pairs show up in the VPR (5) most frequently occurring VTRAC pairs, and I further assumed the optimal VTRAC would be on the list of the VPN (12) hottest VTRACS. I then iterated PPL, VPR, and VPN through 1-30, 1-15, and 1-3... [ More ]

PART 2A - What Knobs I'm Tweaking In My Optimization

I tasked myself with finding a semi-reliable method of determining a VTRAC that is likely to hit at least once in the next 7 draws. I'm in the process of running an Optimization Macro in Excel using several parameters that I will discuss below. The premise here is that there may be an optimal combination of these parameters that maximizes box hits in a 7 draw window, and hopefully results in profit over the long term. I'm happy to sha...

VTRAC Revisited

mitachoo — Mon, 08 Nov 2021 22:57:20 GMT

Based on several previous posts by me and others, I re-visited VTRAC for Pick 3 and some associated number generation strategies. Summarized herein is what I found.

But first, I have to apologize . . . I created my VTRAC Tracking Spreadsheet from scratch and didn t realize until I got way down the road that my way of designating VTRACS is slightly different from the conventional designation as summarized at https://www.lotterypost.com/vtracs; I named my VTRAC buckets 0, 1, 2, and 3 inste...
