Hi,

I created a spreadsheet study which calculates the ratio between the max and min delta and the formula works well.

I want to add a condition so that the calculation is only done when the max delta is greater than the min delta.

and that doesn't work, it erases all the calculations for me.

Can you help me?

Thanks

What is the formula that you have entered for this?

ID3.SG8/-ID3.SG9 it's ok

and when I add the condition

ID3.SG8>ID3.SG9

it doesn't work anymore

What do you mean by "add the condition"?

If the exact formula you are entering is the following:
=ID3.SG8>ID3.SG9

Then this will return a True/False result. That is, when ID3.SG8 is greater than ID3.SG9 then the result will be True, otherwise it will be False.

If you want actually combine these, then you would need to use an IF() statement, like the following:
=IF(ID3.SG8 > ID3.SG9, ID3.SG8 / -ID3.SG9, 0)
