Hi Everyone This should be rather simple, any help is appreciated thank you :)

In column A i have a dates in order in order,
in column B i have either if the day was a "win" or a "lose"
In Column C i have a formula for current win streak
1689487428959-png.95336


im looking for a formula to determine given the statistical probability of streaks if the following day will be a win or a lose
what are some ways i can use the data i have to statistically show, whether given the current streak or any other factors, give a statistical probably whether the following day would be a win or a lose?

Excel Facts

Enter current date or time
Ctrl+: enters current time. Ctrl+; enters current date. Use Ctrl+: Ctrl+; Enter for current date & time.
One way you took look at this assuming the probability of a win each day is the same (doesn't randomly change each day).
Add up the number of wins and divide by the total number of days.

In the example below we flip a fair coin for 33 days. A head is a win.
After 33 days we got 19 heads so 19/33 is about 58%. As the number of days increase we should get closer to the 50% we would expect.
