Have a date slicer always set on the last month

Hi, I have this slicer:

Is there a way to to have the last month dates every time I open the report? for example, if I open it today (21 Feb), I will have dates from 21 Jan to today. 

 

Thank you!

What is feeding the slicer, e.g. a date table or the data table?  There is no way for PBI to know what dates to populate, but you can on design.  For example, creating a date parameter table in Power Query that loads with whatever rules you have and then joining on the date dimension or data table.

Is there any reason you don't want to use the relative date mode in the filter? I don't think there isn't a built in way to automatically change the dates to the previous month's.

Yes, I wanted to be able to select a particular date, another option would be to have both relative and between filters, but they would overlap
