    Here is the formula modified for your case. You need also to use the month name in the visual instead of the year (from the pevious date table). However this won't work with my samp[el file as it's data has only monthly ganularity. So please try with your data.

    MTD =
VAR NumOfMonths = -2
VAR ReferenceDate =
    MAX ( 'Date'[Date] )
VAR PreviousDates =
    FILTER (
        DATESINPERIOD ( 'PreviousDate'[Date], ReferenceDate, NumOfMonths, MONTH ),
        DAY ( 'PreviousDate'[Date] ) <= DAY ( ReferenceDate )
    )
VAR Result =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Sales'[Salesl] ),
        REMOVEFILTERS ( 'Date' ),
        KEEPFILTERS ( PreviousDates ),
        USERELATIONSHIP ( 'PreviousDate'[Date], 'Date'[Date] )
    )
RETURN
    Result
