Hi  @atasgao ,

I created some data:

Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Create measure.

M_ForeastAmountRemainingMonth =
SUM('Table'[ForeastAmountRemainingMonth])
M_ActualsAmountYTD = 
SUM('Table'[ActualsAmountYTD])
Measure-ActualsAmountYTD =
IF(
    MAX('Table'[date].[MonthNo])<10&&MAX('Table'[date].[MonthNo])>=9,CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[ForeastAmountRemainingMonth]),FILTER(ALL('Table'),[date].[MonthNo]=10)),[M_ActualsAmountYTD])

2. Place [M_ForeastAmountRemainingMonth] and [Measure-ActualsAmountYTD] in the line chart.

3. Result:

@atasgao , Create a measure (only for forecast visual line) to have actual of last month added to forecast

or even forecast line can be actual + forecast, in-display it will display like you want
