Post From: SPREADSHEET - Tracking a Cell

Thx tomgilb for the suggestions

=IF(YourConditions,AA3,K4)
This will bring your example K10's value to K3 to be able to be used in real time, assuming you condition hasn't changed in between.
is this something I would enter into a "non auto-filling" cell such as K1, L1, etc


If your conditions change in between, another way to grab a value in 'K10' is to use another formula column, e.g. column P, with this:
=IF(YourConditions,1,0)
Then use something like this in yet another formula column:
=INDEX(K3:K1002,MATCH(1,P3:P1002,0),1)
This will grab the value in column K where the most recent '1' occurred in column P.
can this techniques go in any cell? Also it seems I remember reading somewhere in another post that you mentioned INDEX/MATCH usage does not work well in New Spreadsheets....which I am using



** Further elaboration on my previous example **

Let's say at the current bar I decide I need to use K20 & K10. I create a simple formula in K1: =K20-K10

When a new bar is added to the sheet, I now need K1 to be K21-K11. Etc, etc.
