De autocorrelatie functie vertoont een dalend verloop naar mate de lags stijgen. Dit is ook erg logisch, want het verschil tussen aantal keren kop en munt zal op lange termijn 0 worden (50/50 kans).
De eerste keer dat er gegooid wordt kan het echter niet anders zijn dan dat 1 van de 2 een voorsprong neemt, omdat het andere nog niet gegooid is. Naarmate er meerdere keren gegooid wordt zal dit verschil dalen tot het na x-aantal keren gooien tot binnen het betrouwbaarheidsinterval gedaald zal zijn en het 0%-verschil zal benaderen.

de autocorrelatie die we hier waarnemen is typisch voor een lange termijn trend. we zien enkel positieve en zeer significante correlatie coefficienten.
