Default Mixing absolute & relative reference

In C73 I want the maximum of (N73:BE73)
Because columns N to BE are months, once the month is over, I erase column
N.
Then the formula MAX(N73:BE73) gives an error then.
I am trying a mix of absolute and relative addressing, with
=MAX(INDIRECT("R[0]C[+11]";FALSE)&":$BE$73"),
but this doesn't work (gives "#VALUE!").
Can somebody help, please ? Thanks

Just a basic indirect reference then.

=MAX(INDIRECT("N73"):INDIRECT("BE73"))
