If I want to calculate the difference between today's low and yesterday's low, I can use this formula:
If(LOW < Ref(LOW, -1), LOW - Ref(LOW, -1), 0)
However, I want to find the total sum of all the differences for the WEEK, but ONLY when today's price is less than yesterday. For example,
Fri = 1.08
Mon = 1.00 (8 cents lower than Friday)
Tue = 0.90 (10 cents lower than yesterday)
Wed = 0.85 (5 cents lower than yesterday)
Thu = 1.20 (don't include it, because it's higher than yesterday)
Fri = 1.00 (20 cents lower than yesterday)
The sum of ONLY the ones whose price is lower than the day before = $0.43.
I guess another way of interpreting this is:
If Fri low < Mon low, and Tue low< Mon low, and Wed low< Tue low, and Thu low< Wed low, and Fri low< Thu low
then
Sum up (Mon low - Fri low) + (Tue low - Mon low) + (Wed low - Tue low) + (Thu low - Wed low) + (Fri low - Thu low)
I was looking the different Functions, but I cannot seem to figure it out.
