How to read the metrics

  • 12-month high

    The largest advertised jackpot recorded in the tracked window for that game family, not an all-time record.

  • Average jackpot

    The mean advertised jackpot across every tracked drawing in the 12-month sample for that game.

  • vs. average

    How far the current advertised jackpot sits above or below that 12-month average, expressed as a percentage.

  • Rollover streak

    The number of consecutive recent drawings where the advertised jackpot stayed flat or grew without resetting to a lower base amount.

What not to infer

  • Fixed top-prize games with no meaningful prize movement in recent draws are excluded from trend cards because a flat line is not useful jackpot analysis.
  • Jackpot families with fewer than two tracked prize observations in the window are omitted from the history section until enough data exists.
  • Advertised jackpots are operator estimates and can change close to a drawing cutoff. Confirm final posted amounts with the official lottery source before buying.
  • Trend analysis describes past prize movement only. It does not predict the next jackpot amount or suggest when a prize is due to be won.
