kookoo,
The Distinct History Differences filter version 2.0.2 for pick 6 games has 11 little panels, 1 panel for each column, and there are 6 check-boxes in each panel.
There are 6 check-boxes in each panel, because the winning numbers can be grouped in each column in 6 ways:
1. all winning numbers in one row in a column
2. winning numbers contained in 2 rows in a column (in any 2 rows)
3. winning numbers contained in 3 rows (any 3 rows in a column)
4. winning numbers present in 4 rows
5. winning numbers present in 5 rows
6. winning numbers in 6 rows, each number in a different row.
What you enter in Count min ... max ... indicates in how many columns the values that you entered into check-boxes will appear. As a Count setting you can enter a range of values, min 0 max 11.
The statistic listing of all past Distinct Diffs Counts is available in the Summary table. To use the filter, first open the Distinct Diffs Count statistics page, and next the filter.
To see how the filter works you need to experiment a bit with Back-testing and testing the filter itself for the last known jackpot combination. When you are back-testing, make sure that all past jackpot combinations are entered into the data base and nothing is skipped in the Winning Numbers. When you are testing the filter for the last jackpot combination, make sure it is skipped in the Winning Numbers. Probably you also need to click on Update button in the WNH statistics.
Thre are too many possible Distinct Diffs combinations and it is practically impossible to be succesful at prediction. But we know the previous Distinct Diffs patterns and they can be removed because they are rare and unlikely to be repeated in the next drawing. You can enter 1 Distinct Diffs pattern at a time, count 11 - 11, click Remove, click OK.
However, you cannot remove enough tickets from the package this way, even if you remove hundreds of past Distinct Diffs combinations.
A more efficient way of filtering would be if you used the last known Distinct Diffs Count as a reference combination. Enter it into check-boxes,
use a range of count (for columns) which covers approximately 80% of past jackpots (in my 6/45 game it is min 2 max 5), click Leave, click OK.
You can find the range of count of columns which covers approximately 80 % of past jackpots, or any % of past jackpots, by back-testing for a given Distinct Diffs pattern.
After filtering with the last draw Distinct Diffs pattern (Leave, Count 2 -5) probably you can do the same with previous draw(s) pattern(s).
