or you can make this all in one measure with a variable :
Measure =
var Total Amount = SUM(Amount)
return FORMAT(Total Amount,"#,###0;(#,###0)")

I'm not completely sure about the question. If I understand you correctly you
want to format the Amount, if it is negative to put Amount into brackets.
If this is correct just make a measure like this :
FORMAT(Amount,"#,###0;(#,###0)")
