Calculate the Subtract values based on the slicer value you have chosen

Dear all 

I have two slicers, continent and countries y, 

in the countries table, we have countries and items and profit 

I want to be able to choose two countries and see the Absolute Subtraction value between all the items within the 2 countries that I chosed

As default, Power BI is showing the SUM.

The value in the visual should represent the subtraction of different products in Germany and Sweden. 

 

Thanks in advance 

Regards

One way of doing that

=
VAR T1 =
    ADDCOLUMNS (
        VALUES ( 'Table'[Country] ),
        "@Value", CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ) )
    )
VAR MaxValue =
    MAXX ( T1, [@Value] )
VAR MinValue =
    MINX ( T1, [@Value] )
RETURN
    MaxValue - MinValue

What if you select 3 or more or even 1 what should be the expected result?

we could either limit the countries' slicer to choose only 2 ( I don't know how to do that 🙂 ) or continue subtracting from the final abstract result
