    Hi Anonymous 

    try to create a measure

    dwellTime = 
var _selectedDay = DATE(YEAR(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[DateTime])), MONTH(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[DateTime])),DAY(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[DateTime])))
var _start = CALCULATE(MIN('Table'[DateTime]),FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[Type]=SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Type]) && DATE(YEAR('Table'[DateTime]),MONTH('Table'[DateTime]),DAY('Table'[DateTime]))=_selectedDay))
var _end = CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[DateTime]),FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[Type]=SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Type]) && DATE(YEAR('Table'[DateTime]),MONTH('Table'[DateTime]),DAY('Table'[DateTime]))=_selectedDay))
return
IF(_end>_start,datediff(_start,_end,MINUTE),1)

Thanks az38 ! I guess this will definitely works on a smaller dataset. My dataset is a bit too huge and I have split it up to three parts and it is working fine now!
