Postman TodayDate variable to get past dates

New to APIs/Postman

Hi, so I’m stuck on creating a new variable for a past date. I currently have a global variable:
pm.globals.set(“todayDate”,parseInt(moment().format(“YYYYMMDD”)))

Instead of creating a bunch of different global variables for 5 days back, 10 days back and so on I was wondering what I can do with my todayDate variable to set a new local variable as 10 days back?

I know i could just do something like this: pm.globals.set(“yesterdayDate”,parseInt(moment().subtract(1, ‘days’).format(“YYYYMMDD”)))
but was thinking i could use my todayDate variable and manipulate that ?

Thanks!
