Calculating Max Consecutive Wins

[ChaosTrader63]

Hello all! I am trying to find the formula to calculate consecutive wins from my journal spreadsheet in cell "L" onto my Overview spreadsheet in cell "N 12". I don't do much excel formulas so I would need to understand how to enter this so it calculates from one sheet onto another sheet. I have attached 2 pics to explain and also the journal. I do appreciate all the help. Thanks!

Using your posted workbook...

This ARRAY FORMULA, completed by holding down CTRL and SHIFT when you press ENTER (instead of just pressing ENTER)
returns the maximum number of consecutive Wins

Is that something you can work with?

Hi all!

It's an old thread but for me this topic is still actual.

The formula of Ron Coderre was very helpful. Thanks for that!

My question is, how can I add an additional criteria to this formula?
For example: in cell K12 there are "Long" and "Short".

The formula should only calculate consecutive WIN/LOSS when cell K12 contains "Short".

Thanks for any help!
