Filter X-axis

I have as measure calculating sales of last 18 months:

Volume_18M = CALCULATE([Fsg volym];FILTER(Datum;Datum[Date]>DATE(YEAR(TODAY());MONTH(TODAY())-18;DAY(TODAY()))))

In a bar chart I want to display this per month.

To show when there is Zero sales I have selescted to show values without data but this gives me an X-axis like below.

 

 

How do I filter my datetable to only show values between Today and 18 months back on X-axis?

Unfortunatley this filters the categories on my X-axis if there is no data for the Year-Month.

 

I managed to get it working with this measure:

Volym_18M = CALCULATE(
       IF([Fsg volym]=0 
            && (LASTDATE(Datum[Date]) > 
                 DATE(YEAR(TODAY());MONTH(TODAY())-18;DAY(TODAY())) 
                 && LASTDATE(Datum[Date]) < TODAY()) ;0;[Fsg volym]);
       FILTER(Datum;Datum[Date]>DATE(YEAR(TODAY());MONTH(TODAY())-18;DAY(TODAY()))))

You can use the page level filter or visual level filter to get the last 18 month Volume, no need of writing dax for that. Try this and let me know if that fix your problem.
