Switch colour card filter by field value

I'm formating a card by FIELD VALUE

 

Is there a way to get this switch formula to turn greater than 0 green e.g. "#094" and red if less than 0 e.g. "#d64550";

 

My current code is:

Measure Value Color = SWITCH(TRUE(),
[% Average 2019] >0,"#D64550",
[%Average 2019] =0,"#252423",
[% Average 2019] <0,"#094",
[% Average 2020] >0,"#D64550",
[% Average 2020] =0,"#252423",
[% Average 2020] <0,"#094"
)
 
It keeps turning red for some reason when it's +18.54%

You can't have one measure that will return different values for the average in 2019 and 2020. Only the first true condition will be honored. So, you see 18.54% being red because this color comes from the other measure. In all honesty, in your color measure none of the 3 last conditions will ever be hit since the first 3 already cover all possibilities. Use 2 different color measures for the 2 different numerical measures. By the way, in the measures given by @nandukrishnavs you don't have to multiply by 100 since you're only comparing to 0.

Try to write two measures.

 

Color2019 =
VAR _val = [% Average 2019]*100
VAR _result =
    SWITCH (
        TRUE (),
        _val > 0, "#D64550",
        _val = 0, "#252423",
        _val < 0, "#094"
    )
RETURN
    _result
Color2020 =
VAR _val = [% Average 2020] * 100
VAR _result =
    SWITCH (
        TRUE (),
        _val > 0, "#D64550",
        _val = 0, "#252423",
        _val < 0, "#094"
    )
RETURN
    _result

 

If your format of measure ([% Average 2020], [% Average 2019) is not the percentage, then you don't need to multiply 100.
