Frequency Table Example

For our frequency table we need 8 weeks worth of draws.  You can either record 8 weeks worth as they are being drawn or you can check through your lottery’s website to get the historic results.

Instructions

You firstly need to know many numbers are in your lottery draw.   In our example we have 45 numbers in the draw.  This is the total number of possible numbers.

For the sake of our example we are going use the following numbers These are real numbers taken from OzLotto In Australia.

Week One - 2, 22, 43, 5, 25, 37

Week Two - 31, 26, 10, 28, 3, 16

Week Three - 35, 9, 44, 8, 23, 21

Week Four - 10, 42, 7, 20, 16, 22

Week Five - 8, 2, 6, 11, 37, 40

Week Six - 26, 14, 16, 33, 6, 45

Week Seven - 5, 20, 6, 40, 22, 2

Week Eight - 16, 15, 7, 26, 2, 3

Have a look at the numbers for the first draw.  In our example we see that - 2, 22, 43, 5, 25 and 37 were drawn. 

Now just place a 1 in row 1 under the number 2, and place a 1 in row 1 under 22, and place a 1 in row 1 under 43 and so on until all 6 numbers are recorded.  See example below.

Let’s now have a look at the numbers for the second draw.  In our example we have the numbers 31, 26, 10, 28, 3 and 16 drawn.

Now just place a 1 in row 2 under the number 31, and place a 1 in row 2 under 26, and place a 1 in row 2 under 10 and so on until all 6 numbers are recorded. 

This process should be completed until all 8 rows are filled.

Once all 8 weeks have been completed add all entries each column. Because each entry is marked with a one it is a simple matter of adding each of the one’s in each column.  See example to see how it’s done.  The total for each column should be listed on the totals row.

To find the Hot Numbers pick the 8 highest totals. Now for the first four numbers this is pretty easy. Numbers 2 and 16 have been picked 4 times and numbers 6 and 26 have been picked 3 times.  It’s not so easy to pick the next 4 numbers because there are 8 numbers that have been picked 2 times over the 8 week period.  The numbers to pick our final 4 hot numbers from are 3, 5, 7, 8, 10, 20, 37 and 40. I suggest if you are using the paper method to just pick any 4 numbers.  I’m going for 5, 20, 37 and 40 to make up our 8 hot numbers

LottoTeller software will pick the 4 hottest numbers and then randomly select 4 more from the remaining numbers in the hot number list making it easy and accurate to find Hot Numbers

To find your Cold Numbers pick 7 numbers with the lowest draw totals.  In our example we have 17 numbers that didn’t get drawn once.  Keep in mind these numbers were drawn in a real lottery draw so the results are not unusual. The numbers that didn’t get drawn were 1. 4, 12, 13, 17, 18, 19, 24, 27, 29, 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 39 and 41.  Just pick any 7 of these numbers to make up your cold numbers.  For our example I am choosing 12, 13, 17 27, 30, 36 and 39.

LottoTeller software will randomly select the 7 numbers from the 17 possible cold numbers in our example.  At only $9.99USD it takes at lot of the hard work out of this method.  Of course if you aren’t convinced feel free to use the blank frequency table.  Check the other LottoTeller benefits

Hot and Cold numbers combined.

To find our 15 numbers you just combine the Hot and Cold Numbers keeping in mind that we are working towards 8 Hot Numbers and 7 Cold Numbers.

The full 15 numbers are:

2, 16, 6, 26, 5, 20, 37, 40, 12, 13, 17, 27, 30, 36 and 39.

LottoTeller software will find the 15 Hot and Cold Numbers in the blink of an eye lid.
