Please help me with my excel project. I have a stock trading spreadsheet with a database I export from my trading platform sorted vertically by execution date (regardless of whether Its a buy or a sell). I am trying to think of a way to dynamically transpose my database horizontally, grouped by their corresponding ticker symbol and sorted out from left to right by date (see desired transposed data below).
Spreadsheet structure:
- Each trading cycle has their own single row sorted by execution sequence.
- buying and selling trades should be logged in separate tables.
- can only have up to a total of 3 entries and 3 exits within a single trade
- can both have long (buying stock as an entry trade and selling to close) and shorting (selling stock as entry trade and buying to close).
*short trades should have negative shares, as shown in the image below, for both entries and exits (for later calculations convenience).
Challenges:
- after buying a stock, I might increment or decrement my shares of stock later on after buying and/or selling different stocks, or after buying or selling the stock thereof.
- after selling all my shares from a single stock, I might open a new position and buy the same stock multiple times immediately after or later on after many different trades from different stocks have been executed.
- buying and selling stock(s) may occur within the same day.

*ignore the following header: Order Type, Pos effect and Spread.
Desired dynamically transposed data: https://i.imgur.com/Bs0G5VF.jpg

"Filled" header contains the entry prices and "Cover" contains the exit prices. "Shares" are the quantity.
I would deeply appreciate it if anyone would be of any help to my project. Thank you in advance.
