Enkel tussen 100 en 300 opgooien er een stijgende trend waar te nemen, anders is er een dalende trend te zien. Maar deze lange termijn trend kunnen we alleen maar veronderstellen. Maar als je de 'Random-Walk time series’ verschillende keren simuleert, blijkt dat je nooit dezelfde resultaten krijgt. Dit is logisch als je weet dat zowel kop als munt evenveel kans (50%) hebben om gegooid te worden en dat elk experiment onafhankelijk is van het verleden. De munt weet, zo gezegd, niet wat ervoor gebeurt is. Hieruit blijkt dat de veronderstelde trendlijnen en eventueel een patroon enkel te wijten zijn aan toeval. Wat je wel juist weergeeft is dat er geen seizonaliteit is.
