Display difference between bars in Line and Column Clustered Chart as Line

I am tring to create a Line and Column Clustered Chart as part of it. I have the Variable dates as X-AXIS (such as days in month or sundays in a year, last 13 weeks etc.. as dates). Y-AXIS has SalesAmount. Now as you can see the dates are 01/01, 01/02, 01/06 etc.. I need to get the difference in the bars displayed as line for example value to be displayed on 01/01 need to be zero but value to be displayed on 01/02 should be as below

=(BarValue of 01/02  - BarValueof 01/01)/BarValue of 01/01 * 100  as percentage. I am having really tough time to calculate this as moving percentage change and dispaly it as line. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi @Ravikjinfo,

 

Try the mesure below please. Please also check out the demo in the attachment.

Measure =
VAR minimumDay =
    CALCULATE ( MIN ( 'Table1'[Date] ), ALL ( 'Table1' ) )
VAR lastday =
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( 'Table1'[Date] ),
        FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table1' ), 'Table1'[Date] < MIN ( 'Table1'[Date] ) )
    )
VAR lastTotal =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Table1'[Value] ),
        FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table1' ), Table1[Date] = lastday )
    )
RETURN
    IF (
        MIN ( 'Table1'[Date] ) = minimumDay,
        0,
        DIVIDE ( SUM ( Table1[Value] ) - lastTotal, lastTotal )
    )
