Hi Anonymous ,
Create a Yearmonth column from the date column.
year_month = YEAR('table'[date])*100+MONTH('table'[date])Create index columns based on month and year.
month_index = VAR MonthRow = 'table'[year_month] RETURN CALCULATE ( DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'table'[year_month] ), FILTER ('table','table'[year_month] <= MonthRow ) )Create an unrelated calendar table as slicer.
Table 2 = SELECTCOLUMNS('table',"DateKey",'table'[date],"YearMonth",'table'[year_month])Create a measure and apply it to a visual level filter.
Last6Months = //Get the year_month from the slicer var max_date = SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[YearMonth]) //Get the index of year_month var _mindex = CALCULATE(MAX('table'[month_index]),FILTER(ALL('table'),'table'[year_month]=max_date)) //Get the min year_month of the last six months var min_date = CALCULATE(MIN('table'[year_month]),FILTER(ALL('table'),'table'[month_index]=_mindex-5)) return IF(MAX('table'[year_month])>=min_date&&MAX('table'[year_month])<=max_date,1,0)Best Regards,

Try like with date table
Rolling 6 = CALCULATE(Average(Table[Trade Price]),DATESINPERIOD('Date'[Date],ENDOFMONTH(Sales[Sales Date]),-6,MONTH))

Hi amitchandak ,
Not looking for average in the statement.
I would need the statement to lookup the last 6 month record.
