@Anonymous So you will never had a Value that is less than a "previous" row? If that is the case then you could do this:

Measure = 
  VAR __Value = MAX('Table'[Value])
  VAR __Table = FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table'),[Value] <= __Value)
RETURN
  SUMX(__Table,[Value])

@Anonymous You are going to need an Index or Date column to allow you to define "before".

@Anonymous

And, hence, why you need an Index or Date column. No way to solve it if values can be equal or a subsequent value is less than the current value. Just add an Index column in Power Query. Otherwise, you are stuck with a DAX index:
