Seems that choosing Master Slide settings is a problem for some SLNG-II users.
There are just too many possibilities.
As an alternative, I suggest the creation of an artificial Sum4 trend string.
Do what??
Here is a demonstration using the Right Digit for the Master Slider.
Get some graph paper and record the last 20 draws for Step 1.
Create a Sum4 string by adding 4 consecutive digits.
xxx90000901100002210 = Sum4 totals
22233223233313333322 = last 20 Right-D Master Sliders for Step 1.
Question is What is the Next digit in the Slider string?
Analysis:
The Sum for the last 3 digits in the Step 1 string is 7 (3+2+2)
The fourth Slider digit can be a 1, 2, or 3
The Sum4 total can be 8, 9, 0
There is more!
The Sum4 trend line ends with 0,
Applying the Follower concept, the followers for 0 are
0/000910002
Not much of a trend here!!
The last Slider value is 2.
Applying the Follower concept, the followers for 2 are:
2/2232332
What's next?
Using the slider follower sequence, I would choose 2.
Thus, my Step 1 setting would be 2.
This procedure would be used to choose Step 2 and 3 settings.
Also, this strategy can be applied to the FS lines, as well as the Power Slides.
Yes, a lot of initial work transferring the data to graph paper but once this is done the lines
can be updated quickly.
Why Sum4??
Needed a string that is different from the others.
Is 20 consecutive draws sufficient for detailed analysis??
I believe it is, but a User could use more or less. Just be consistent.
The string will get longer as new draw digits are added.
Personally, I believe the last 30 would be a good starting point.
Hope this is helpful for those trying to decipher the Master Slider history.
