I'm trying to come up with a formula that allows me to insert the date of the previous trading day. Because for several reasons I can't create a column array of manually entered holidays, I'm trying to find a formula that would produce this. I've tried this, but excel doesn't like it.
This is what i am trying to do when the balance increases by $1000 the lot size should move to the next level e.g 0>1000=0.01 1000>2000=0.02 and for each movement the value of the 0.01 should be 0.09 e.g. 0.01=0.09 0.02=0.18 0.03=0.27 etc.
way to calculate the drawdown for a futures trading account’s equity. The following is the record of taking a sequence of 20 trades. Drawdown is defined as the lowest point between two consecutive equity highs. Therefore a formula should detect pairs of equity highs and then find the maximum difference between these highs and the lowest point in between each of these pairs. Do you think this can be done using standard excel functions?
You might wish to plot a linear graph to visualize the equity. Looking forward to hear what you think! I include more examples of equity records.
formal definition of a drawdown:
Drawdown: The magnitude of a decline in account value, either in percentage or dollar terms, as measured from peak to subsequent trough. For example, if a trader's account increased in value from $10,000 to $20,000, then dropped to $15,000, then increased again to $25,000, that trader would have had a maximum drawdown of $5,000 (incurred when the account declined from $20,000 to $15,000) even though that trader's account was never in a loss position from inception
The attached spreadsheet should explain my issue. In a nutshell, the value on line 6 is from the previous day's data (i.e Tuesdays line 6 is based on Monday's data). If the previous day has no data ( i.e. market closed), line 6 should reflect the last line 6 calculation.
Also, i would like line 6 to be zero past 2 calendar days from today. i.e. Friday June 6 should read zero until tomorrow (june5) data is entered.
I'm brand new to programming in Excel, and currently building a system that will help me trade equity options (similar to trading stocks). So far, I've put together the ranking system I want to use based on a live data feed that updates in real-time (during market hours). For every possible trade in my 'universe' (currently about 600), Excel provides a live score (based on my formulas and weightings) as well as prices and other info about the trade (options strikes, symbols, expected return, etc.).
What I'd like Excel to be able to do is keep a separate sheet where a trade (row) that scores over an arbitrary threshold, say, 100 'points,' is recorded as a static line (instead of continuing to dynamically update), like a snapshot of that line. I'll use this list of trades to submit to my broker for trading.
If it was as simple as a 'triggered' copy - paste special - values, that would do just fine. The trigger would also need to see if that trade has already been recorded for the day, so I don't get an infinite list of the same trade.
After a trade makes it into this list, I'll need to compare it to what I already have in my portfolio (which I'll also need to build) so I don't become too heavily weighted in any one trade. (Just thought I'd let you know where this will be going, too) ...
The following code sends the open workbook, as an attachment, to a predefined email address. It then inserts the date it was sent in a cell in another workbook. It works ok in three other modues going to different addresses, it works ok on other networked PCs. Unfortunately on one PC we get the error "Can't Find Project or Library". Initially this pointed to an undeclared variable, when this was declared, it pointed to another. All variables have now been declared but it fails and points to the DATE command".

I created a calendar and made it so when I click on a cell, it pops up and allows me to choose the date. When I choose the date and press okay, it is supposed to put that date in the cell. I created the spreadsheet a while back and remember it working. Now however, it doesn't and I can't figure out how. When I made the calendar, I followed some help posted on here and copied the VBA from their calendar since I don't really know VBA at all. Here is the worksheet. It should have the calendar already created via VBA. I just need to know how to have the popup calendar to place the date selected in E5.
e13 = 0 until after the 10th of the month on the 11th it = $100.00 If I13 has an amount in it on or before the 10th e13 remains $0. Each of the 12 line of this rent roll needs to correspond to its own month.
I need an IF formula, that states if a date is more than a month after the date in the cell then it is timely and if it isn't then it is not timely. For example the date in A1 is 12/11/05, if the cell is A2 is 13/12/05 (or any date after that) then A3 should read Not Timely, if A2 is 12/12/05 (or any date before that, including a date before the date in A1) then A3 should read Timely. Is there any way to do this?? At the moment I am having to go through manually and put in either Timely or Not Timely.
I have a data set which is structured such that there are variable numbers of products (column A) from 1 - 48 and these repeat multiple times for each "Name" held in column B. I have attached an example of this which uses a data set with 7 entries reapeating 7 times.
I need excel to insert 2 formula for me multiple times which needs to varry according as follows
1. Calculate the average value of data in Column C - G for n cells starting at a specific cell (C2), I have inserted an example of this and highlighted it in yellow. This then needs to repeat down column C several times, the number of times this will repeat depends upon the number of different names held in column B. But I have this calculated already and stored in a cell im my main document.
2. Calculate the variance of each value in the x cells above from the average calculated in point 1 above. I have highlighted this also in yellow.
When inserting a row in lets say row 5, i want the formula to be kept for that row. (e5) Table doesnt seems to work. Any macro for this, and no button but automatically.?
I'm trying to insert a formula into cell "A8" when cell "A1" changes. These formula gives me (into cell "A8") the next week day, depending on the value of cell "A1". If A1="FRIDAY", "A8" will be 08-11-2013.
The problem is that an error ocurred (Run-time error '1004'). If I put the formula directly into cell it works...
Code: Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Target = Range("A1") Then ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A8").Formula = "=TODAY()+8-WEEKDAY(TODAY()-MATCH(A1;{""MONDAY"";""TUESDAY"";""WEDNESDAY"";""THURSDAY"";""FRIDAY""};0))" End If End Sub
I have a simple time sheet that I want to insert weekly dates by the date I have. I don't know the formula for that. I've attached the time sheet. TimeSheet2.xls
I have some formula's that look at a range of rows
[Code] .....
The trouble is I insert rows to add new data to my sheet, this then changes the formula. $A$9 then becomes $A$10, I don't want this. I want the start of the formula to stay the same. How do I do this?
Need "Copy formula when Inserting rows". For instance, A1=5, B1=10 but my formula set far behind in AE1=SUM(A1:B1). So,when I insert new row, I have to go to AE to drag the formula, is there any Macro or tips to simplify it?
I have this code for setting up a sheet to begin a calculation involving the solver add in. I am getting a "Run Time Error 13: Type Mismatch" on the line that inserts a formula into the cell. I have put the first offending line in bold in the code below. Is this a problem with syntax or is there something else that I have made a mistake on?
I would like to insert a formula in a column, the formula is in column D and must be something like "=C1-B1" for row 1, "=C2-B2" for row 2,...etc. I would like to do it without using a loop cycle in VBA...I have attached an example of the data I'm using..
I am trying to write a macro that will allow me to copy the text of a cell, and then insert text around that previously copied string. I am having a problem adding the copied text into my formula. Here is my code below:
Sub Bid() ' Selection.Copy ActiveCell.Value = "inventory levels are " & ActiveCell.PasteSpecial(xlPasteValues) & " and oversold by" ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select End Sub
I need to replace the values in the braces with the values in Column A. Is there an easy way to do this or am I stuck with doing each one manually? There are 92 lines in Column A.....
I have a spreadsheet with 10,000 rows. In column A dates are mentioned and in column B I'd like to calculate the specific Quarter via VBA code as I can't have formula's in my sheet. My VBA code is:
Sub QuarterCalc() Dim myCell As Range Application. ScreenUpdating = False For Each myCell In ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Data").Range(Cells(1, 2), Cells(10000, 2)) myCell.Formula = "=INT((MONTH(RC[-1])-1)/3)+1" myCell.Offset(0, 0) = myCell.Offset(0, 0).Value Next Application.ScreenUpdating = True End Sub
some method by which a user can insert a row that will then copy any forumulas, not their resultant value, in the row above into the new row. The best would be for a user to be able to just use Insert > Row from the toolbar and then have a macro automatically run, but I am willing to use any possible solutions.
I know that there are other posts on this subject, but I can not figure out how to make the information in them work for me. I know that I need to go to View Code in order to insert the code, but I am not clear on what to do after that in order for the code to function, even how to exactly enter the code (should I enter into General or Worksheet, into Sheet1 or ThisWorkbook, etc..). I saw someone mention something about using now() somehow to get code to automatically run or using toolbar buttons, both of which I do not understand how to do.
I have a spreadsheet serving as a simple document register. Column A is a unique document reference number, which is a simple concatenation of some text which prefixes all of the document numbers, plus the date in "yyymmdd" format (from column B) and a 3-digit sequence number (from column C).
Column B has no formula - my macro just pastes a timestamp in there.
Column C is a sequence number field which has a formula comparing the "yyymmdd" part of the timestamp with the cell directly above it. If they are different then the sequence number becomes "001" - if they are the same then the sequence number is incremented by 1, so all docs created on the same day have an incremental sequence number.
Here's the problem. When I want to add a new document I need to copy the last row down to the next row (in preparation for the next document to be created by my system) and there are two ways I've been doing this - one which works and one which doesn't.
This works > Say my last row (with the hidden formulae) is row 13. I select A13:C13 plus the three blank cells directly below (A14:C14) and do a Ctrl+D to copy them down. All is well.
But the following doesn't work - why? > I select the entire row 13, copy it, then reinsert it at row 13 so the formulae in row 13 get shifted down to row 14. What goes wrong here is that my formula in column C which WAS comparing the date in B13 to the one in B12 NOW compares B13 to B11
I've attached an example spreadsheet to try and demonstrate the problem. Sheet 1 is the original sheet. Sheet 2 is the "copying down" method which works, and Sheet 3 shows what happens when you copy the entire row 13 and "Insert copied cells".
I am having trouble looping through a range and inserting a formula where a condition is met.
My range is "h9:i"
My current code inserts a formula in column i when there is a value in the adjacent row in column h:
[Code] .....
However, because there are so many rows (12,000+) it is taking a considerable length of time to run.
Some of the cells in column i will already contain the relevant formula, so to speed this up I want to insert the formula in column i only when the cell value (in column i) is not null, as opposed to inserting it for all cells within the range.
I know how to loop through the range, but the problem is the 'H9' cell reference in the formula in the code above will need to change depending on what row it is being inserted into- so if it is going into "i31" this will need to be "h31".
I have a function Sum('1st Qtr:4th Qty'!AW1) in row 1 and dragged down 129 rows so the last reads Sum('1st Qtr:4th Qty'!AW129). If I insert a row the cell reference does not increment automatically below the insert location. How do I get it to do so. The insertion occurs when I run a macro.
I have a spreadsheet that I can modify. It currently has a three product column but I need to insert 2 or 3 more columns to make 5 plus the total at the end. It also have a summary sheet. I insert the 2 columns and somehow got the formulas flowing. However when I hit the summary page its not showing results for those two new columns in the total. I am lost. I wish I could post the sheet. Its a multiple product break-even analysis exercise.
What will show in column B will change each day as a I am creating a ordering picking list and want to show a pic in column A of the item to pick the item. Is there an easy way of doing this.
I have been messing around with the following
=showpic("C:DesktopItems46004978Thumb.jpg")
And thought I may be able to show this as by doing the following in the desired cells
And the index formula will grab the correct showpic string depending on stock code that is showing in various column B cells but this isn't working.....
I have an Excel file that contains several worksheets. I would like to add a forumla to the next available cell. For example, if coulmn F contains the set of numbers to be sum the formula should be placed beneath the last number in column F. Each worksheet has a different length, the worksheet name will vary, and the number of worksheets will vary.
I know how to accomplish this task using the code below when the sheet name is known. Since it is not known I am unsure of the code.
I am trying to create a macro that inserts a formula based on data in column A (looking up in same row) and the header (Stored in Row 2 of the column - This is a fixed cell)
Formula I can currently copy and paste in there is
(I know it's bad form to match in the vlooukup, however it works in this form...)
So far I have
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _ "=VLOOKUP(RC1,'Current IW15'!$A$1:$L$1962,MATCH(Workpack!R2C,'Current IW15'!A$1:$L$1,0),FALSE)" ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Range("A1").Select End Sub
