Default help needed with VB

Hi
What is the square of numbers all about? Are the words underneath it
variable names?? On Day 1, what does A3 (low) mean? Is A3 a cell
reference - if so, what is the "low" bit? If "low" is some variable,
why is it not in your list...

....and so on, and so on...

Team,

I am working to have a macro calculate profits for long
positions. Below is an example and the criteria needed

1/1/04,1/02/04,1/1/04,1/5/04
112740,112750,113090,113500
111900,111350,112200,112250
112740,112040,113040,113230
111956,112131,112062,112312

row1 DAY, row2 HIGH, row3 LOW, row4 CLOSE, row5 PIVOT,
row6 GAIN, row7 STAT

1.) DAY 1
IF A3(low) < A5(pivot) AND A4 A5,
THEN A6 = A4 - A5 AND A7 = LONG.
IF A3 < A5 and A4 < A5
THEN A6 = A4 - A5 AND A7 = LOSS
IF A3 A5 AND A4 < A5 THEN A7 = NOT LONG

2.) DAY 2
IF A7 = LONG
THEN IF B4 B5,
THEN B6 = B4-A5 AND A6 = 0 (B6 has profit from day1 and
day2) AND B7 = LONG.
IF B4 < B5 THEN B6 = B4-A5 AND A6 = 0 AND B7 = CLOSE
LONG.

IF A7 = LOSS OR NOT LONG
THEN 1.) for DAY 2

this macro run until every column (day) until the last
non bank value in row 1

thanks for any help on this.
