Pre set date slicer with button

[Bokchoy]

Hi everyone

I have a line graph that is filtered by a date slicer. I want to have a button that will automatically set my date slicer to the last (x) days from today. I don't want to filter or restrict the date range available as I still want to change the date range beyond the last (x) days if required.

Currently, I can set my date range between 2 dates with a bookmark, but I can't find a way to set a relative date range from today.

is this possible?

@Bokchoy , best is relative date slicer. if that can work

Second to default values like this:a new column in date table

Is Last 30 = if('Date'[Date]>=TODAY()-30 && 'Date'[Date]<=TODAY(),"Today",[Date]&"")

Thank you for the solution.

I also found another quick solution. The relative date-time option for my date slicer was hidden due to the slicer header being "off" 

I switched it back on and it gave me the option to select the relative time.
