Hello again, everyone
In January, Richard solved a problem for me. My question was this:
Richard provided me with this formula which, after adapting it to my purpose worked just fine:Using web query i have a list of the last 400 days of dow closing numbers. I know how to find the highest closing and place result in a cell, but I need to find the lowest dow close SINCE the highest close occured using vba and place that number in a cell. I have been trying for several days to find the answer, but I now need help. Anyone?
=MIN(OFFSET(A1,MATCH(MAX(A1:A400),A1:A400,FALSE),0,COUNTA(A:A)-MATCH(MAX(A1:A400),A1:A400,FALSE),1))
The reason for my post today is this...
It's easy to copy and paste a formula that is provided by an expert, but that is not always helping a person to learn Excel VBA. Although the formula works, I keep looking at it trying to dissect it so as to be able to fully understand it. My brain feels like it might explode as I try to analyze it piece by piece.
Could someone (perhaps Richard) please take a few minutes to explain how this formula works. I WANT TO LEARN !
