x, y, z are three different fields/columns with values x1, x2...; y1, y2...; and so on.
in case of x we just know "x1" and we need to find x2, x3, x4... in following manner:
x2= x1+y1-z1
x3= x2+y2-z2
and so on
all y and z field values are given but in case of x we just know x1.
How can we apply this in Dax to find x2, x3,....?

Hi @Anonymous
i assume that you have a unique date or index column. Otherwise you nee to create one.
X =
VAR X1 = 1 --inset the initial value
VAR CurrentIndex = TablName[Index]
VAR TableBefore =
FILTER ( TablName, TablName[Index] < CurrentIndex )
VAR Y =
SUMX ( TableBefore, TablName[Y] )
VAR Z =
SUMX ( TableBefore, TablName[Z] )
RETURN
X1 + Y - Z

How would these work if you can explain me?
SUMX ( TableBefore, TablName[Y] )
SUMX ( TableBefore, TablName[Z] )
Hi @Anonymous
Simple mathmatics
x2= x1+y1-z1
x3= x2+y2-z2 = x1+y1-z1+y2-z2 = x1 + (y1+y2) - (z1+z2) = x1 + SUMX (Y) - SUMX (Z)
