Create moving range of dates with DAX

I have a dates table.  I want to set up a slicer on the dates, allowing a user to define an end-date.  From that I want to create a set period of indexed dates tied to that variable date that can be used as a filter on other measures.

 

As an example, if the date range is 1/1/22 to 1/31/22, and a user selects 1/31/22 with the slicer, and the rolling period is set to 7 days, I want the dates from 1/31/22 back to 1/24/22 to be indexed as a '1' and all the other dates in the range to be a '0'; if they select 1/20/22, the index would be from 1/20/22 back to 1/13/22, and all other dates would be '0'.  Thus if I have DAX measures that are tied to dates, and I apply this moving indexed range as a filter, what would be displayed would only be the measures associated with the dates in that range.  Any suggestions?

Hi,

Please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.

Index measure: =
IF (
    MAX ( Data[Date] ) <= MAX ( Slicer[Date] )
        && MAX ( Data[Date] )
            >= MAX ( Slicer[Date] ) - 7,
    1,
    0
)
