HI !
I have a table with date and value column. I would like to calculate the cumulative total value, which I got, but also the cumulative max of the cumulative total value.
I tried to use Maxx but performance is terrible wtith a large table. I tried to use a virtual table, but max does not accpet a column from it
Is there a better alternative?
My formulas:
Cumulative Total =
Cumulative Max of Cumulative Total =
Table
| Dates | Values | Cumulative Total | Cumulative Max |

Just try calculate(max()...
Cum max = CALCULATE (
MAX('Table'[Values]),
FILTER (
ALLSELECTED( 'Table' ),
'Table'[Dates]<= MAX ( 'Table'[Dates] )))

Thank you for your reply, but Max does not accept acolumn form a virtual table as parameter.
is your computation depending on user filter choices or can it be done as a calculated column?
Hi! It requires user to filter date and a group of stock
Thank you
