Formula to calculate cumulative losses before winner

**ch33tos** · 07-08-2019, 12:25 AM

Hi all, I am completely newb in excel and was looking for help on something.

I am using this formula =IF(H2<0;Z1+1;0) in cell Z1 for calculating cumulative losses before having a winner. H2 is the range from which we calculate.

An example of the result of this formula would be:
0
1
2
0
0
1
2
3
4
0

I need a formula that calculates the amount of losses in a row before getting a winner, which is marked by 0, so for example:

0
1
2 2
0
0
1
2
3
4 4
0

Hope it's understandable. Deeply appreciate the help, thanks

Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to make it clear what is needed. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are demonstrated, mock them up manually if needed. Remember to desensitize the data.

Hi, appreciate the help.

I've attached a workbook containing a before and after sheet.

"A" column represents results. Formula in B3 is calculating losses (negative results) in a row before having a winner (positive number)

I was looking for a formula to use data from B column, that showed only the cumulative losses number before having a winner.
So instead of "1;2;3;4" only shows "4"

Example is marked in "After" sheet, column C

Thanks once again!
