i have a column that returns "UP", "DOWN" OR "FLAT" BASED ON ANOTHER FORMULA.
MY QUESTION IS, I WOULD LIKE TO START ANOTHER COLUMN THAT KEEPS A RUNNING
TOTAL OF HOW MANY CONSECUTIVE DAYS HAVE BEEN POINTING EITHER "UP" OR "DOWN".
IT NEEDS TO RESET THE COUNT EACH TIME THE DIRECTION CHANGES.

Thanks

Say your data is in column A. In B1 enter 1. In B2 enter:

=IF(A2=A1,B1+1,1) and copy down
