days bucketing

I have one excel file and based on this file data i need to create days bucket

i have a column date1 where using this date1 column , i need to create 30,60,90 days bucket. When i select one date at filter, based on that ,from that particular date, i need to get dates and related buckets.

example, if select jan 1 2019, then i should get dec 1 2018 to 31 dec 2018 dates  and other bucket as 30 days for this related dates

But when i select date1 column at qliksense report, i am getting data but when i try to get as date1-1the no data displayed for me. Even when tried as date(date1,'MM/DD/YYYY') then also no data.

When  i try today() at report, i got current date but when try to get previous date as today()-1, then also i dont get any data.

Can any one please suggest as how can i move forward on this.

Try this expression:

=if( max({$} total
Date)-only({$} Date)<3,
'1-3 days',
if( max({$} total
Date)-only({$} Date)<6,
'4-6 days',
if( max({$} total
Date)-only({$} Date)<10,
'greater than 6 days',null()
)
)
)

LOAD date#(date,'M/D/YYYY') as Date inline [
date

3/22/2019
3/23/2019
3/24/2019
3/25/2019
3/26/2019
3/27/2019
3/28/2019
3/29/2019

4/3/2019
4/4/2019
4/5/2019
4/6/2019
4/7/2019];

Expression

=if( max({$<Date={"=$(=max(Date))"}>} total Date)-only({$<Date={"<=$(=max(Date))"}>} Date)<3, 
'1-3 days', if( max({$<Date={"=$(=max(Date))"}>} total Date)-only({$<Date={"<=$(=max(Date))"}>} Date)<6,
