Hi,
I have a data set where I want to count the number of Loss or wins in a row, but reset each time it switches to the new name like this:
Win | 1 |
Win | 2 |
Win | 3 |
Loss | 1 |
Loss | 2 |
Win | 1 |
Win | 2 |
The Trade UID is the main index for this table that is unique.
Any guidance on how to do this would be great, I've tried quite a few different things and the closest I can get it to create a running count, but can't get it to reset.
A sample of the dataset can be found here: https://1drv.ms/u/s!Ag_sNauqdCgpg95oGmGBlk9NJrf0Uw?e=hICHI1
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.
PQ and Excel formula are way much conciser and more straightforward,
Grouped = Table.RemoveColumns(Table.Group(Source, "PnL Text", {"ar", each Table.AddIndexColumn(_, "Streak_PQ", 1)}, 0), "PnL Text")
Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension! |
DAX is simple, but NOT EASY! |
This worked a treat, I used the PQ version in the end. Thanks for quick help.
