Hi @srk_powerbi
You can add a measure in the model to help set conditional formatting. For example,
Icon measure =
SWITCH (
TRUE (),
[Difference] > 0, 1,
[Difference] = 0, 0,
[Difference] < 0, -1
)
[Difference] is the measure in the table which this icon formatting should be based on. Then set it up like below.
Result:
Kindly let me know if this helps.

Can you do this with percentages. The numbers did not work. Thanks!
