Hi Anonymous 

You can do this with Custom String Formatting to give you the arrows

https://www.myonlinetraininghub.com/custom-formatting-strings-in-power-bi 

 

Select your measure and in the Format string area type (or copy/paste this)  "▲";"▼";  which will display ▲ for positive values and ▼ for negative values

 

The code for ▲ is ALT+30 and ▼ is ALT+31

Arrow Symbols: Left, Right, Up and Down Arrow (alt-codes.net)

 

Regards

Phil
