Coloring Bar chart dynamically by value of x-axis

[LillyLegenda]

Hello, I would like to color the bars in my bar chart accoring to the year on the x-axis:

The largest year (Max Year) should be red, second largest blue (Max Year -1) , third largest yellow (Max Year -2).

I am using a measure to calculate the colors which is working when I write down the years in the code but I would like to do it dynamically.
This is working: 

Year Colour = 
VAR MaxYear = MAX('Date'[Year])

VAR Color =
SWITCH (
    True(),
        MaxYear= 2023, "red",
        MaxYear=2022, "blue", 
        MaxYear=2021, "yellow"
)
Return
color

But when I change it work dynamically all bars have the same color:

Year Colour = 
VAR MaxYear = MAX('Date'[Year])
VAR MaxYearColour = MAX('Date'[Year])

VAR Color =
SWITCH (
    True(),
        MaxYear= MaxYearColour, "red",
        MaxYear=2022, "blue", 
        MaxYear=2021, "yellow"
)
Return
color

Thank you very much for your help 🙂

Try:

Bar Colour =
VAR _YR =
    MAXX ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Date'[Year] ), 'Date'[Year] )
VAR _YR1 =
    MAXX ( EXCEPT ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Date'[Year] ), { _YR } ), 'Date'[Year] )
VAR _YR2 =
    MAXX ( EXCEPT ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Date'[Year] ), { _YR, _YR1 } ), 'Date'[Year] )
RETURN
    SWITCH (
        SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Date'[Year] ),
        _YR, "Red",
        _YR1, "Blue",
        _YR2, "Yellow"
    )
