I am interested in using "IF" to make my existing code better. Existing Buy Code: =OR(AND(AA3>AG3,AA4<AG4,AG3>AC3,AG3>AE3,AG3>AI3),AND(AA3>AI3,AA4<AI4,AI3>AC3,AI3>AE3,AI3>AG3),AND(AA3>AC3,AA4<AC4,AC3>AE3,AC3>AG3,AC3>AI3)) I would like to say If: =OR(AND(AA3>AG3,AA4<AG4,AG3>AC3,AG3>AE3,AG3>AI3),AND(AA3>AI3,AA4<AI4,AI3>AC3,AI3>AE3,AI3>AG3)) -- Buy 2 then do this: AND(AA3>AC3,AA4<AC4,AC3>AE3,AC3>AG3,AC3>AI3) -- Buy 1 Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks!!!!!!!

I am not sure what 'buy2' and 'buy1' means for you (do you want to send 2 separate orders), but it seems like you are simply wanting a filter. So you could separate these into different columns and compare them.... or use if(or(and(A),and(B)),and(C),0) or are you looking for this. if(or(and(A),and(B)),buy2,if(and(C),buy1,0)) breaking this down 'if(or(and(A),and(B))' is true --> buy2 if not, then run the next if statement 'if(and(C)' is true ---> buy 1 Then buy1, and buy2, mean different things such as - buy quantity of 3, buy quantity 1 if existing position is already open. Hope that is not confusing :)

I want to buy 2 contracts if this is true =OR(AND(AA3>AG3,AA4<AG4,AG3>AC3,AG3>AE3,AG3>AI3),AND(AA3>AI3,AA4<AI4,AI3>AC3,AI3>AE3,AI3>AG3)) And buy 1 contract based on the next code only if the first line is true AND(AA3>AC3,AA4<AC4,AC3>AE3,AC3>AG3,AC3>AI3)

$j$26 is the place to modify the quantity. If I am reading it right - If the first line is true - you will buy 2 contracts, then if the next line is ALSO true you wish to buy an additional contract You could output a value in Col O of 2,3 or 0 and then test to see if this is what you want. =if(OR(AND(AA3>AG3,AA4<AG4,AG3>AC3,AG3>AE3,AG3>AI3),AND(AA3>AI3,AA4<AI4,AI3>AC3,AI3>AE3,AI3>AG3)),if(AND(AA3>AC3,AA4<AC4,AC3>AE3,AC3>AG3,AC3>AI3)),3,2),0) alternatively you might be asking =if(OR(AND(AA3>AG3,AA4<AG4,AG3>AC3,AG3>AE3,AG3>AI3),AND(AA3>AI3,AA4<AI4,AI3>AC3,AI3>AE3,AI3>AG3)),if(AND(AA3>AC3,AA4<AC4,AC3>AE3,AC3>AG3,AC3>AI3)),1,2),0) Date Time Of Last Edit: 2014-04-15 13:44:49
