@amitchandak thank you for your help, but how can i place the indicators by rows? I made all the measurements but it seemed that i can only place it by columns.

@fhei_navarro , You have to create a measure MOM using a date table and time intelligence. You have use month year, year, month in visual from date table

 

MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD('Date'[Date]))
last MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,MONTH)))
last month Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),previousmonth('Date'[Date]))

this month = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(ENDOFMONTH('Date'[Date])))

 

Indicator = if([This Month] >= [Last Month] ,1,0)
