Hi @RashmitaR

Try following :

 

1 ) Create an Index column by going into Power Query part of Power BI (click Edit Queries) and then under transformmations.

2) Then write formula as in screenshot here :

 

Last7Days.jpg3) Write similarly for other metrics

 

Cheers !

@RashmitaR This Measure should work... Let me know.

 

7 Day Avg =
DIVIDE (
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( Table[Close Price] ),
        DATESINPERIOD ( Table[Date], LASTDATE ( Table[Date] ), -7, DAY )
    ),
    CALCULATE (
        DISTINCTCOUNT ( Table[Date] ),
        DATESINPERIOD ( Table[Date], LASTDATE ( Table[Date] ), -7, DAY )
    ),
    0
)

 

Thank you for reply. I have created a column using your suggestion but while creating another one for 15day average i am getting a circular dependency hence i am unable to create it . Could you please help me by letting me know how to deal with this issue .

 

Thanks ,

Rashmita Reddy.

Hi @Sean,

Thanks for perspective. However dates are not contigous 🙂
