Mega Millions Number Trend Chart

How to Read This Chart

Each row is one drawing, most recent at the top. Numbers are grouped into three roughly equal zones plus a separate column group for the Mega Ball. A filled circle marks a number that was actually drawn that day; the small number in an unfilled cell is how many drawings back it's been since that number last hit ("–" means it hasn't hit at all within the loaded history). The connecting line through the Mega Ball column purely traces its position draw-to-draw and doesn't imply any statistical relationship.

The columns on the right are per-drawing descriptive stats:

• Sum — the total of that drawing's main numbers.
• Span — the gap between the highest and lowest main number drawn.
• Odd:Even — how many of the main numbers were odd vs. even.
• Zone — how many main numbers landed in each of the three zones, e.g. "2:1:2".
• AC — counts every pairwise difference between the five main numbers, then counts how many of those differences are unique. A low AC means the numbers are more evenly spaced (closer to an arithmetic sequence); the maximum possible (6, for 5 numbers) means every pairwise gap is different.

These are genuinely useful for spotting patterns in past draws — but a pattern in the past doesn't change the odds of the next drawing, which stays fixed no matter what the last 200 draws looked like. Pair this with the number heatmap for the same frequency data as a color-coded summary instead of a matrix, the number generator if you just want a random set, or the Mega Millions frequency statistics page for straight hot/cold counts.
