highest number if positive values in a row

h12
8 - Asteroid

Hi all!

 

I have this data set:

 

Group

Value

12
23
34
4-9
5-10
63
74

 

And I would like to find out the largest number of positive values in a row. So based on the above, the answer would be 3 (group 1,2,3) as thats the longest streak with positive values. Ofcourse my entire data set is bigger so there will be a range of streaks but I would like to find the longest please.

 

Many thanks in advance!!

Thank you both! Exactly what I needed. I was getting stuck on how to identify the streak of positives, but the formula makes sense!
