Anonymous sorry couple of things are getting mixed up based on solution Mariusz  and I are providing.

 

If you want to compare value in measures to set the color, you should create another measure like I mentione previously but if you are comparing your measure against fixed value then you should choose the method Mariusz provided.

 

As you can see there are many option for conditional formatting, you have to see what best fit for you. in case you are comparing two measures I would do something like this

 

KPI Color= 
SWITCH ( TRUE()
[Measure 1] > [Measure 2], "Green",
[Measure 1] = [Measure 2], "Yellow",
"Red"
)

    guys, I really appreciate your effots on helping me.

     

    I don´t know why it didn[´t work out I tried everything.

     

    For some reason PBI is considering all values smaller than average.

      Anonymous it is always good to see what the measure value you are getting at each row. so in the table you showed, drop those two measures whcih you are using in KPI color so that we can see what value you are getting and make sure you are getting expected value otherwise we are shooting the dark, doesn't know what those measures are and how you data models looks like? Read this post to get your answer quickly and it saves everyone time.
