Basic YTD and MTD calculation done by variables or SET expression you can try like

YTD Calculation:-

Sum({$< YourDatefield = {'>$(=Max((YearStart(YourDatefield)))) <=$(=Max(Today()))'}>} Metrics)

Or

Sum({$<Datefield = {'>$(vYearStart) <=$(vCurrentMonth)'}>} Metrics)

MTD Calculation:-

Sum({$<YourDatefield = {'>=$(=Max((MonthStart(YourDatefield)))) <=$(=Max(YourDatefield))'}>} Metrics)

Or

Sum({$<YourDatefield = {'>=$(=Max((MonthStart(Today())))) <=$(=Max(today()))'}>} Metrics)
