Sir i am accessing your whole playlist, and this is the place where things are getting really interesting learning DAX, i might be the one person to notice that you have changed data source file 2-3 times . And sir explanation is wonderful . There are only 2 playlist of DAX in Youtube and you are one of them having best content and easy explaining system. I don't know why they are having doubts but yes its totally wonderful .

DatesInPeriod vs DatesInBetween:
3 Days Cumm DBW = Calculate([Total Sales], DatesBetween(DatesBetween(DimDate[Date].[Date], dateadd(LastDate(DimDate[Date].[Date]), -2, Day),
3 Days Cumm DIP = Calculate([Total Sales], DatesInPeriod(DimDate[Date].[Date], LastDate(DimDate[Date].[Date]), -3, Day))

When you use the same dates between function for month or year it creates a problem. It incudes the last date of previous month which inflates the numbers. Hence it is advisable to us DatesInPeriod function👍

What if i want to do the same calculation but exclude today. For example, today is 5th of January. I want the cumulative of 2nd, 3rd and 4th

When I am using this dax expression.
1)Datesinperiod=calculate (Sum[sales amount], DATESINPERIOD [dimdate].[date], date(2016, 1, 1), 2, MONTH)))

i am not getting cummilative value, I am getting sum value.

But when I used the formula you have used I am getting cummilative.
Why Sir, it happens because of Dateadd function?.

If so we won't use date add function in DATESINBETWEEN. still we are getting cummilative if i had usedyour formula
