Hi, I got the moving average working as below:
MovingAverageCost = CALCULATE ( AVERAGE ('Cost Table'[Cost]), DATESINPERIOD ( 'Cost Table'[Month], LASTDATE ( 'Cost Table'[Month] ), -3, MONTH ) )
But each time i take out certain months with a filter, i need the moving average to ignore those months taken out and calculate a new average based on the filtered months. Is there something i can add to the code to do that? To make it easier its always consecutive, like for [January, February, March, April], if i filter out [January, February], [March]'s moving average should be equal to its average.

Hi @spoony
How do you want your data to be used, in a matrix or a Visual?
Reason is that this would work below, but I am thinking it might not be exactly what you are looking to achieve.
You already have got your Average Measure [Avg]
Then you create a new measure which will count the months selected.
Month Count = CALCULATE( DISTINCTCOUNT('Cost Table'[Month] ), ALLSELECTED('Cost Table'[Month] ) )
And then if you create this final measure it will then have the total correct, but if in a matrix each line will appear to be incorrect.
Moving Average = DIVIDE([Avg],[Month Count])
Hi @spoony
This is a total guess, but it might work.
What about if you modify your measure to the following:
MovingAverageCost = CALCULATE ( AVERAGE ('Cost Table'[Cost]), DATESINPERIOD ( ALLSELECTED('Cost Table'[Month]), LASTDATE ( ALLSELECTED('Cost Table'[Month] )), -3, MONTH ) )
Hi @GilbertQ,
It produces an error: Datesbetween and Datesinperiod functions are only accpeting date column reference as a first arguement.

Hi @GilbertQ, ya it needs to be on a graph and matrix. I'll test it out anyway.
