Calculate YTD based on measure

Hi All,

 I have 1 table  and the data like this

DateAttributeValueIndex
22/01/2021TR11001
23/01/2021TR11202
24/01/2021TR11303
26/01/2021TR11404
22/01/2021TR22001
23/01/2021TR22022
24/01/2021TR22033
26/01/2021TR22054

 

I calculate the difference via index by this formula

 

 

diff =
var _nextID = sum(tMain[Index]) +1

var _tr = SELECTEDVALUE(tMain[Attribute])

var _result =CALCULATE(
                    calculate(sum(tMain[Value]),
                    FILTER(all(tMain),tMain[Index] = _nextID),
                    tMain[Attribute]= _tr
) -
                   CALCULATE(
                   sum(tMain[Value]),
                   tMain[Attribute] =_tr
)
)

return
if(_result <0 ,0,_result)
 
and I got the output of what I want

---------------------------------------------------
Then I want to calculate YTD
 
 
diff YTD =  TOTALYTD([diff],tCalendar[Date])
 
This is the output

----------------------------------------
 
and this is what I want

I want to find YTD and MTD with the same attribute.

The result isn't going out. Do I need to fix the diff measure or anything else?
Anyone help me, please!! 
 
Thank you!

@ttansriw , Make sure you take Max for value.   and tCalendar is marked as date tbale and dates in the visual are used from tCalendar

@amitchandak 
I summarize all the data so all the data is maxed with the unique date in the main table

and marked as a date in a table calendar already.

The output appears like in the picture.

@ttansriw ,Can you share sample data and sample output in table format? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.

I want to calculate the diff between rows by each attribute and then calculate ytd/mtd for each attribute.
