Measure not appearing in dax.

I have the following measures for calculating Profit moving averages for current and last quarters:

 

 

Total Profits = [Total Sales]-[Total Costs]
Profits LQ = CALCULATE([Total Profits],DATEADD('Date'[Date],-1,QUARTER))

 

 

Now, when I am trying to insert 'Profits LQ' measure inside my "Profits 1M MA LQ", the Dax is not showing the 'Profits LQ' measure. And on top of this, I am getting a different measure symbol for my last quarter profit, unlike the other measures. I have inserted the image below.

 See the different measure symbol from the rest.See the different measure symbol from the rest.

 
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

please check that you created a measure and not a calculated column.

Yes, it was a major. But it worked fine after I closed and opened again my pbix file. This happens a lot with me don't know if there is a bug with the new update. Thanks.
