Rolling average without dates

I have a dataset that contains batch numbers and cycle times for each batch number. I am trying to create a rolling average over the last 5 batches to plot. Those are the only two variables - I do no...

    I found out how to do it minutes after I posted on the forum. I found a calculated column code which works exactly how I want it. 

    Column = 
var my_index = 'Table'[Index]
var my_result = 
    AVERAGEX(
        FILTER(
            'Table',
            'Table'[Index] > my_index-5 &&
            'Table'[Index] <= my_index
        ), 'Table'[Parameter]
    )
RETURN my_result

    This makes a rolling average of the last 5 parameters. You will need to create an index column, but that's the only thing you should need to create in order to graph a rolling average.

    Hi

    I'm trying to do something similar, but I'm having trouble following your references.  When you create an index column, do you mean that each record within a batch got the same index number?

     

    What do table Index and table Parameter refer to?  Did you create a separate table just for the index numbers and Parameters is the actual data?
