Average for N last values ?

Hello,

 

I'm using Power Pivot and I need to compute the average of N last values, here N = 28 and is based on index column. Basically, I want to have the 28 last values from MAX index to (MAX index - 28)

 

I tired this :

 

 

AVG 4 Last week new shoppers:=CALCULATE(AVERAGE(Sweden[New shoppers]);FILTER(Sweden; MAX(Sweden[Index]) && MAX(Sweden[Index]) - 5))

 

 

But even if i change the N value (28 to 5 for example), the average is the same...

 

Do you have any idea?

i tried with a simplified dataset:

 ceated a measure with such code:

AvgLast5DayNewShopper =
CALCULATE(
    AVERAGE(Sweden[NewShoppers]),
    FILTER(
        Sweden,
        Sweden[Index]>MAX(Sweden[Index]) - 5
    )
)
it worked like this:

you can change 5 to 28 in your real case.
