how to add a categorical value based on calculated measures - tornado chart

Hello,

 

I am trying to make a Tornado chart with the imported visual (Microsoft).

I have one column and two calculated measures. No of purchases (Column), No of Purchase Same Period Last Year (Measure) and Chage from SPLY (Measure). I would like to add a measure to show a categorical value (increase or decrease) based on the Change from the SPLY measure.  So I would like to make a dynamic calculated table like below (Increase or Decrease changes dynamically). Would it be possible, please?

I just noticed increase was 0 value, what can I do for the Tornado chart?

 

Thanks for your help.

@Anonymous , You need dynamic segmentation. Please refer example of a numeric value, the same can be done with the text value

Thanks @amitchandak for your suggestions.  I also searched for more videos on dynamic segmentation. I liked the video titled Dynamic Banding & Segmenting which is closed to my senario.
