Custom previous period data

Hello Power BI community,
I ran into a problem when trying to get the sales from different custom periods.
I created a new calendar table to get a union column with different period ranges (last 7 days, last 15 days, las 30 days, this month, last month and a personalized time period to select from a slicer.

 

I am trying to get the sales from the previous selected period, this is the DAX code I have:

Total Sales Last Period =
VAR startDayActPeriod =
    FIRSTDATE(
        'Calendario Rangos 2'[Date]
    )
VAR EndDayActPeriod =
    LASTDATE(
        'Calendario Rangos 2'[Date]
    )
VAR daysActPeriod =
    DATEDIFF(
        startDayActPeriod, EndDayActPeriod, DAY
    )
VAR startDayLastPeriod =
    FIRSTDATE(
        DATEADD('Calendario Rangos 2'[Date], -1 * daysActPeriod, DAY))
VAR endDateLastPeriod =
    PREVIOUSDAY(
        LASTDATE(
            DATEADD('Calendario Rangos 2'[Date], -1 * daysActPeriod, DAY)))
VAR result =
    CALCULATE(
        'Medidas KPI Sell out'[Total Ingresos],
        DATESBETWEEN(
            'Calendario Rangos 2'[Date],
            startDayLastPeriod,
            endDateLastPeriod
        )
    )
RETURN
    result
 
This only works when I select a personalized period and choose a specific date from the date slicer.

However, when choosing a customized range, the result is "blank"

Thanks in advance for all your help!
