Date filter that include 3 previous days

How can I set a date filter that will include the previous 3 days?

Example: I need to run a report Monday through Friday, each day the report will contain items added on the previous calendar day, but on Monday I need to run the report to include Friday - Sunday. I have written 1 query for Tuesday through Friday to pull 1 previous day, but I can not figure out how to set the filter for Monday's reports so it will always include the three previous days.

@Anonymous Sounds like you need a Complex Selector or perhaps something like:

Measure = 
  VAR __MaxDate = MAX('Dates'[Date])
  VAR __MinDate = __MaxDate - 3
  VAR __Table = FILTER( ALL('Table'), [Date] >= __MinDate && [Date] <= __MaxDate )
  VAR __Result = SUMX( __Table, [Value] )
RETURN
  __Result
