Hello;

I am using SC spreadsheet for trading. I'm using version 1258. In the old spreadsheets. This is on a one minute chart.

In cell p3, this formula =IF(P4=20,1,P3+1), I would have expected to count on each new row of data, instead, it updates it seems every time the data changes on the chart. 10-20 times per minute.

Another issue is that in the following columns, I don't see a counting on each row, but a repeat of the same number that changes in cell p3, again 10-20 times per minute.

I used Sierra Charts about 2 years ago, and this simple formula would have only updated once per row, and would have given me back a count down each row uptil 20,then reset, like it's written.

I don't understand why it is doing this. Any help would be greatly appreciated, on the above question.

This counts from 1 to 20 at each new row, then starts at 1 again, in cell P3:

=IF(OR(MROUND(A3-INT(A3),1/86400)=0,P4=20),1,P4+1)

It starts at midnight, but you could start it at any time, or at any one-time event.
