6 Consecutive Points either increasing or decreasing in the same direction
Hi Experts
See attached PBIX file which a Super Userw member Greg Deckler help'd out with in completing the first step. Now i am trying to find 6 data point that increase and decreasing in the same driection . Greg focused on 6 data points above or below the average.
See image
I believe according to Greg's notes the answer lies with the "__Diff". I cannot figure out the final DAX in order to make this work.

Anonymous , When I opened your file. Lost with few measures you have. I think you need to check six months 6 consecutive points on [No Trend Measure].
I am thinking of to approach like assume Diff % using this month vs last month
Rolling 6 = if(CALCULATE(sumx(values('Date'),if([Diff %] >0,1,blank())),DATESINPERIOD('Date'[Date ],MAX('Date'[Date]),-6,MONTH)) =6 ,1,0)
for any month this is 1, it means growth for the last 6 month.
same way for < 0

Hi Amit
not sure that is going to work, unless you can proof me wrong. I need to plot this 6 incresing and decreasing points on the line graph and demonstrate this.
Can you kindly update the PBIX file if that is the solution to the question in hand
