Rolling Average Concept

Hello all, 

I am trying to understand the concept of Rolling Average, but I am confused. So, this quick measure calculates the average base value over a certain number of periods and/or after each one. 

 

What I don't understand is the concept of the date here. When I create the measure, it gives me a single number, but I don't know on which date it did all the AVG calculations? 

 

Can anyone explain the concept in a simple way?

    Hi Anonymous,

     

    The moving average is a calculation to analyze data points by creating a series of averages of different subsets of the full data set. For more details, please check this blog.
