Hi, @PBIraja 

 

You can try the following methods.

Measure:

Measure =
IF (
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Change] ) <= -0.05,
    "Red",
    IF ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Change] ) >= 0.05, "Green", "Yellow" )
)

Apply Measure to the background color of the percentage as shown in the figure.

Is this the result you expect?

@PBIraja , Assume you measure based on that you need that +/-

 

a new measure =

Switch(True() ,

[Measure] *.95 , "Red",

[Measure] * 1.05 , "Green",

"Yellow"

)

 

use this conditional formatting using the field value option
