    Scale Conditional formatting based on formula

    Hi. Hoping someone here can help, I have a conditional formatting query.

    Ideally I want to format cell B2 based on the difference between cell C2 and B2 but with a colour scale.

    So if B2 is 10 or more higher than C2 then i want B2 filled in a darker green.

    if B2 is 1 to 5 higher than C2 then i want B2 filled in a pale green green.

    Similarly going the other way in shades of red.

    At the moment I'm doing this manually but if I can do this with conditional formatting that would save me a lot of time and hassle.
    Any help or suggestions would be great.

    Thanks
