DAX formula for manual linear forecast

Hello community, 
Do someone know a DAX formular to create an manual linear forecast (Gradient I would like to define by my self). 
The x-Achses is date Table (here the view in weeks)
The Graph should start at a defined date

Somehow the datediff function is not working as expected

There are new functions since some weeks in DAX:

Thank you for answer. 
I am more searching for a easy implementation like:
y =mx +t (m= gradient, x = days from now, t=intercept [fix value])
Gradient & Intercept do not be calculated, I will define fix values.

 

I am trying this (but Date[date] as simple x value is not working:

Burndown =
 VAR Intercept = 200
 VAR Gradient = -5
 return
 IF('Date'[Datum].[Date] > TODAY(), Gradient* 'Date'[Datum] + Intercept,0 )
