Next , I would export the Sums to the MetaTrader 4 charting program "History" folder.

To do this you need to make sure you have the MetaTrader plugin installed in Expert Lotto 5.

Go to the Main Menu at the top and select Tools > MetaTrader 4

Step #1 "Output Folder"
The "Export Statistics to MetaTrader 4 window will open. Click the "Browse" button and select the folder name where you installed MetaTrader 4. In the screen shot below my folder name is C:\MetaTrder4 Pick 3 PA.
Statistics will be exported to: C:\MetaTrader Pick3 PA\history\ExpertLotto5
Click the Next button at the bottom


Step #2 "Draws"
Click the Select button and Select draws to export. In this example I selected 1000 draws.
NOTE:
If your Pick 3 lottery does not have 1000 or more draws you will need to adjust this figure.
Click the Next button at the bottom

Step #3 "Statistics"
In the Statistics scroll down until you see the "Winning Numbers History" category. Just below enter a check mark in "History Sums"
Note: make sure there are NO other check marks in any of the other boxes. The only information we want is just the "History Sums" only.
Click the Next button at the bottom.

Step #4 "Options"
The Options we want to place a check in the box to the left of "Random Value"
In the "Value offset:" box we want to change the value to 0.0
Click the finish button at the bottom

The "History Sums" are exported to the MetaTrader 4 "history" folder.

Screen shot #1 is the folder where I downloaded and named the folder where the MetaTrader 4 program resides.

Screen shot #2 is the "history" folder where Expert Lotto 5 sends the "Sums History" files

Screen shot # 3 is the list of the named "history sums" files in the ExpertLotto5 folder

C:\MetaTrader4 Pick 3 PA\history\ExpertLotto5

The "ExpertLotto5" is important to remember and I will explain in a later post.

Next I would open the MetaTrader 4 charting program by clicking the "terminal.exe" file in my C:\MetaTrader4 Pick 3 PA folder. You can also create a shortcut on your Desktop.

MetaTrader 4 program will allow you to create templates and profiles where you can save your chart properties such as background colors, indicators, etc.

When I created my charts I saved each of the Levels 0 through Level 10 Sums charts as "Templates" then saved the entire set of Templates as a "Profile".

If anyone is interested in using the Templates and Profile that I use download the following files to the following MetaTrader4 folders.

Here is the download link to my Templates files:

https://app.box.com/s/r7tk6m9c0bdgqnjdn592

Place the "Templates" in the MetaTrader 4 folder called "templates". See screen shot below:

Templates and Profile Download 1.jpg


Here is the download link to my Profile files:

https://app.box.com/s/vifcbofh56itmt3qu3z5

Note: The Profile files you will need to create a new folder name in the "profile" main folder:

Templates and Profile Download 3.jpg


Templates and Profile Download 2.jpg


Note: Make sure you download the Range Indicator that I posted previously.

Step 3: Type

In this step we create the Type. Since the Georgia Pick 3 drawing contains 3 different machines that contain the numbered balls 0 through 9 in each of the 3 machines we need to select "Each number from a separate pool"

Step 5: Draw Dates

In this step I selected the "Draw Number, Day, Month, Year

The reason I selected this option is in the event the Georgia lottery decides to add a bonus drawing.
