Color coding base on cell below

Hello

I have read this thread and its working but what I'm trying to do is a little bit different

https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/excel/color-coding-a-cell-based-on-the-value-of-another-cell/m-p/3867038#M197140

 

I will like a cell to be green>0 red<0 based on the value of cell below it.

I can manually do it but I will have to do it hundreds of time.

This is what I tried to do.

What is happening at the moment, the row change color base on A3 value. In the small exemple I will like B2 and C2 to be red because B3 and C3 are negative

    =A3>0

    =A3<0

    These rules for conditional formatting work in my file.

    =$2:$2

    This is the range the format applies to in the example.
