E.g. in a standard module:

Option Explicit

Public Sub Run()

  MarkContinousValues ActiveSheet.Columns("D")

End Sub

Public Sub MarkContinousValues(ARange As Excel.Range)

  Const BAILOUT As Long = 16

  Dim Cell As Excel.Range
  
  Dim BailoutCount As Long
  Dim PreviousValue As Variant
  Dim RepetionCount As Long
  
  For Each Cell In ARange.Cells
    If Cell.Value = vbEmpty Then
      BailoutCount = BailoutCount + 1
      If BailoutCount >= BAILOUT Then
        Exit For
      End If
    End If
    
    If PreviousValue = Cell.Value Then
      RepetionCount = RepetionCount + 1
      If RepetionCount >= 2 Then
        Cell.Font.Color = RGB(255, 0, 0)
      End If
    Else
      RepetionCount = 0
    End If
    
    PreviousValue = Cell.Value
  Next Cell

End Sub
