Why LOOSE CHANGE Ranks Where It Does

LOOSE CHANGE ranks in the upper tier of active NY scratch-offs because it scores strongest on data reliability for its lifecycle stage (66/100), how long $100 lasts on this ticket (50/100) and risk-adjusted edge (Sharpe + Kelly) (48/100). The ranking is held back by lower marks on 7-day EV trend direction (37/100) and payout rate and EV shift since launch (29/100), which is typical for tickets at this stage of their lifecycle. At the moment 520 top prizes are still unclaimed, which is factored into the upside score above.

Smart Score is recalculated daily from the official NY Lottery prize feed. See the methodology page for how each factor is computed, and the data sources page for attribution.
