stuck trying to create a cumulative area chart with DAX

TL;DR underlined and bold Hi all, I am attempting to create an area chart visual to show the production plan of a given product my company makes so that my staff can see stock issues on the horizon and raise purchase orders.

Ideally I would have a cumulative area chart showing three key things cumulative Forecasts[Forecast.Volume] by month, cumulative Sales[Sale.Volume] by month, and finally cumulative planned stock build by month (more on that later).

Here is what I currently have set up:

The relationships between forecasts and sales are working perfectly (using a date table and a product table). What I am missing (apart from a bunch of sales in Jan and Feb Smiley Tongue) is the cumulative behaiviour, and my research hasn't really brought me any closer to creating that. 

The second thing missing is cumulative planned stockbuild. Planned Stockbuild of a product consists of Stocks[Stock.InStock] filtered by Stocks[Stock.AsAtDate]=Today (AsAt Dates are related to a seperate date table due to the different nature of them - anyway I don't have issues with this part) together with Purchases[Purchase.Quantity] which are flowing in to the warehous at Purchases[Purchase.Date]. This should be a fairly simple calculation - I really need to become more fluent in DAX because I should really be able to do this (I ordered a few books from amazon which will arrive soon!). 

Thanks in advance for any advice from DAX experts out there!
