Thank you for your response.

I currently manually visually add and subtract the numbers in column G to determine when the sum = or greater/less  than the number in J4 or J5 and then do it again for M4 and M5. My issue is that I cannot find a formula that will sum the numbers in column G to reach the Target or Stop Loss number and then drop one cell and repeat the calculation. Example is G10 + G11 =M4 which is a Short Result WIN(N9) because the sum of the numbers in column G were = or less than M4 before M5. Where as the Long Result is a LOSE because the sum of F9:F40 =J5 before the sum number in J4.

As I look at the worksheet cells J5 and M4 should probably be Negative numbers.. Hope this helps. Thanks

It would be better if you fill in Columns K and N with your desired results. Then, attach again your sample file with such desired results. Thereby, I will be able to ascertain the logic of the formula you need.

      Given the sum results in Column C, the formula in D8, copied down rows, would be a simple IF, like this:
      =IF(C8>0,
      "WIN",
      "LOSE")

        Thanks for the reply, the formula works great in column D but what I need is the formula for column "C" so that I don't have to calculate it manually. Column "C" sums the numbers in Column "B" until the sum either reaches a positive $10 or a negative $10.  Thanks
