Lotto Prediction Analysis – February 25, 2026 | LottoExpert

Lotto Prediction Analysis

Start Here: What This Page Does

This tool ranks numbers using a transparent math model built from past draws. It combines three measurable signals: Frequency (how often a number appears), Skip (how long since it last appeared), and Historical bounce-back (how often it returns after a given skip).

Where to find things on this page
The ranked picks appear in the Next Drawing Prediction section. The detailed Skip Charts are further down the page and show the raw history behind the scoring. If you’re not a member, you can still review the charts to understand number behavior — members get the ranked outputs and save features.
If you’re new
Leave the defaults as-is and click Run Analysis. Then use the Main Numbers tile as your starting point.
If you want simple mode
Turn on Pure Math Mode to rank numbers strictly by P(hit | current skip) (no weight blending).
How to interpret results
Higher-ranked numbers show stronger statistical signals in the selected history window. This is probability guidance — not guarantees.

Draw Window

Choose how many past draws to include in the analysis. Note: The settings below will only take effect once you click the “Run Analysis” button. Predictions are never auto-refreshed.

Pure Math Mode (Skip–Hit only)

When enabled, predictions use only the empirical probability that a number hits given its current skip (no frequency/skip/“historical weights” blending).

Main Ball Weight Configuration

Adjust how the algorithm balances “hot” (frequency), “overdue” (skip), and pattern-based (historical) factors for the main balls.

Weight Parameter Definitions

Frequency Weight

This controls how much you favor the “popular” numbers—the ones drawn most often in history. Think of it like choosing the celebrities of the lottery world: they’ve shown up on stage many times!

Why it matters: If you believe “what happened most often will happen again,” crank this up. If you want to give lesser seen numbers a chance, turn it down.

  • 100% ? You only pick the hottest numbers.
  • 50% ? Half your score is popularity, half comes from other factors.
  • 0% ? Popularity doesn’t matter at all—every number starts on equal footing.
Skip Weight

“Skip” measures how many draws have passed since each number last showed up. A high Skip weight chases the underdogs—numbers that haven’t appeared in a while.

Why it matters: If you think “it’s been too long—time to come back,” boost Skip. If you don’t care how fresh a number is, lower it.

  • 100% ? You pick only the most overdue numbers.
  • 50% ? You balance overdue status with popularity and patterns.
  • 0% ? You ignore overdue status entirely—every number is treated the same.
Historical Probability Weight

This looks at real “bounce back” stories—how likely a number is to reappear after missing a certain number of draws. It’s the AI’s way of learning from past comebacks.

Why it matters: If you trust that history knows best which overdue numbers come back most, turn this up. If you want simpler rules, turn it down.

  • 100% ? You pick the numbers with the strongest comeback records.
  • 50% ? You mix comeback patterns equally with popularity and skip.
  • 0% ? You ignore comeback patterns—only Frequency and Skip decide your picks.

Lotto Skip Charts
Quick Guide (like explaining to a kid):
  • Each row is one lottery ball (that’s the left side, under “Ball”).
  • “Count” tells how many times that ball has been drawn. “Last Draw” is the date it last showed up. “Skip” is how many drawings it has missed since then.
  • The boxes labeled 0, 1, 2, …, 20 are skip distances. Example: under “3” we count how many times that ball hit after missing 3 drawings.
  • The yellow box in a row marks the ball’s current skip (how long it has been waiting right now).
  • Simple idea: if a ball has lots of bigger numbers in one column, it often returns after that many skips.
