Hello harwood66,
Assuming a loss equates to negative points and assuming your table starts in A1, then in D3 place the following:
=IF(C3<C2,D2+1,0)
Copy the formula down to the bottom of your list. Next, copy row D (Ctrl + C) and paste values (Ctrl + V, Ctrl, V). Finally, sort column D from largest to smallest. At the top you will see longest losing streak.
