cannot do sum of values on the x axis

I have a dataset that have a hierarchy with SG-TV-TX. I am trying to build a bell curve with PDF on the y axis and sum of values on x axis. The issue i am running into that i cannot do sum of values on the x axis as that option isn't available in visuals in power bi. 

 

EX: When i filter up and down through through different filters in hierarchy with SG-TV-TX data should filter up and down automatically. As we can see in the first screenshot below when i filter to lowest level the range of values on trend below and bar grpah base bell curve are the same and results are accurate.

In the second example below, when i apply filters at a level above (i.e. SG-TV) we can see that the sum operation occurs correctly on the trend but on the bar graph based bell curve the values on x axis are not automatically summed and displayed. I would like to display these values on the x axis of the bar graph based bell curve so that when i filter up and down it automatically sums and up and down values. 

 

How can i achieve this?
