Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
Convert WIN to 1 and LOSE to 0

In worksheet below sparkline range would be column B

another formula that returns 1 or 0 is
=COUNTIF(A2,"win")

If you prefer sparkline created with 1(win) and -1(loss) ..

use this formula instead
=IF(A2="win",1,-1)
