Min and Max Measures are wrong

I have a dashboard with minimum and maximum balance.

Here is Dax for Max Balance:

Maximum Balance =
VAR _mb =
CALCULATE (
MAX ( vw_inactive_account_shares[share_balance_amount] )
)
RETURN
IF ( _mb = BLANK (), 0.00, _mb )
 
and here is the Dax Min Balance:
Minimum Balance =
var _minb =
CALCULATE(
MIN(vw_inactive_account_shares[share_balance_amount])
)


return
IF(
_minb=BLANK(),
0.00,
_minb
)
max.PNGmin.PNG
as you would notice I sorted the table twice (once descending and another ascending). you would also notice, the numbers I am showing in the cards are the penultimate number and not the true max and min balance.
why would that happen, please help me.

Your max/Min is your line-level max or Min. And you are grouping data by a particular category. If means the balance is summed up.

Make your balance or some other field as un summarized or add a line-level key and check.

Hi mosman,

It seems that your Max and min is applied on all table, so it won't changed by slicer. If possible, could you please inform me in details( such as your data sample and your expected output)? Then I will help you more correctly.

Best Regards,
Zoe Zhi

What happens if you allow a visual to summarize balance? e.g. add them to a card and change summarize to Maximum or Minimum

What happens if you simplify your measure? 

MAX(  MAX( 'Table'[Balance] ), 0 )
