What is a Lotto Trend Reversal and how to spot one? Lotto Trend Reversal ends the losing, starts the winning of a longshot number that has been out 17 games or more. A dormant lotto number will confirm a trend reversal if the hit is followed by another hit within the next four drawings. For example, if lotto number 2 hit in game 1, then hit the next time in game 20, this may signify a trend reversal. If number 2 hits again in game 21, 22, 23, or 24, then the lotto trend reversal has been confirmed and you can bet that the lotto number is likely to be hot and continue to win.
