Formula repeating when dragging down

AlexJamieson Try this in D2 and copy down:
=COUNTIFS($A$2:$A$31,">="&C2,$A$2:$A$31,"<"&C3)

AlexJamieson If you would be comparing a range to a fixed value, let's say 1300, you could use ">=1300" as the criteria. But when you want to link the value to a cell reference, you need to write it like ">="&C2. That will make the cell reference dynamic and change when you copy the formula down.

I am using this formula
=IF(L18=P8,0,IF(L18=P9,50,IF(L18=P10,100,"")))
I want to repeat in cells below but the reference cells (P8, P9 and P10) keep moving down 1
