                  </DataTemplate>
 
                  <DataTemplate x:Key="DiamondTemplate">
                      <Grid Height="15" Width="15">
                         <Path  Stretch="Fill" Stroke="{Binding Interior}" Fill="{Binding Interior}"  Data="F1 M 156.37,93.7292L 134.634,
71.8159L 112.906,49.9025L 91.1711,71.8159L 69.4364,93.7292L 70.1524,93.7292L 91.8844,115.644L 113.623,137.556L 135.362,

                      </Grid>
                  </DataTemplate>
                
                  <local:SymbolDataTemplateSelector HighValueTemplate="{StaticResource CrossTemplate}" 
LowValueTemplate="{StaticResource DiamondTemplate}" x:Key="SymbolTemplateSelectorKey"/>
 
                  <DataTemplate x:Key="symbolTemplate">
                      <ContentControl Content="{Binding}" ContentTemplateSelector="{StaticResource  SymbolTemplateSelectorKey}" />
                  </DataTemplate>
          </ResourceDictionary>
          </syncfusion:SfChart.Resources>
          ………        
          <syncfusion:LineSeries ItemsSource="{Binding Data}" XBindingPath="XValue" YBindingPath="YValue">
                <syncfusion:LineSeries.AdornmentsInfo>
                    <syncfusion:ChartAdornmentInfo SymbolTemplate="{StaticResource symbolTemplate}">
                    </syncfusion:ChartAdornmentInfo>
                </syncfusion:LineSeries.AdornmentsInfo>
          </syncfusion:LineSeries>               
</syncfusion:SfChart>
public class SymbolDataTemplateSelector : DataTemplateSelector
{
    public DataTemplate HighValueTemplate { get; set; }
    public DataTemplate LowValueTemplate { get; set; }
 
    public override DataTemplate SelectTemplate(object item, DependencyObject container)
    {
        if (item == null) return null;
 
        var adornment = item as ChartAdornment;            
        var model = adornment.Item as Model;
        //You can change the value based on your requirement
        if (model.YValue > 150)
        {
            return HighValueTemplate;
        }
        else
        {
            return LowValueTemplate;
        }
    }
