Combine x-axis slicer in chart with buttons

I have a table with monthly dates and values as well as calculations for MoM and YoY. I need to include in my charts, besides the slicer on the x-axis, buttons that will allow the user to select the last year of observations in the chart. Also, two more buttons for  last 3  and 5 years (red rectangle in seecond image). I've searched for a solution, but  so far no sucess. Thanks for yous suggestions.Screenshot 2024-05-01-1.pngScreenshot 2024-05-01 112513.png

Thanks for your fast reply. What you suggest is an example for slicing a table with buttons. I'm looking for slicing a chart. Perhaps its very similar, but I'm not experienced with Dax. Still need a lot to learn.
