Countx help counting values of a measure

 

I have a matrix of measures (formatted as rows) to show either green, yellow, and red. I'm having difficultly getting the counts of each color using countx measure. My measure to calculate green is shown below, but it doesn't yield any results. I have a work around using SWITCH/TRUE and also another one using SUMMARIZE/COUNTX/FILTER, but they take ages to load and slow down my report.

    VAR GAR = CALCULATE(
                COUNTX('Table','Table'[37 AR]),
                    FILTER('Table',[37 AR]="GREEN"))
    VAR GLR = CALCULATE(
                COUNTX('Table','Table'[38 LR]),
                    FILTER('Table',[38 LR]="GREEN"))
    VAR GSPPCR = CALCULATE(
                COUNTX('Table','Table'[39 SPPCR]),
                    FILTER('Table',[39 SPPCR]="GREEN"))
    VAR GRoB = CALCULATE(
                COUNTX('Table','Table'[40 RoB]),
                    FILTER('Table',[40 RoB]="GREEN"))
RETURN
    GAR + GLR + GSPPCR + GRoB

@anna-lee This looks like a measure aggregation problem. See my blog article about that here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Design-Pattern-Groups-and-Super-Groups/ba-p/138149

The pattern is:
MinScoreMeasure = MINX ( SUMMARIZE ( Table, Table[Group] , "Measure",[YourMeasure] ), [Measure])
MaxScoreMeasure = MAXX ( SUMMARIZE ( Table, Table[Group] , "Measure",[YourMeasure] ), [Measure])
AvgScoreMeasure = AVERAGEX ( SUMMARIZE ( Table, Table[Group] , "Measure",[YourMeasure] ), [Measure])
etc.
