You could MDI in incremental units, ie
G0 G91 X5 will move the X 5 units positive from its present position
G0 G91 X-5 will move it 5 units in the negative direction.
Always a good idea to follow up a G91 with a G90 to put it back into absolute mode unless you always wish to be in Incremental mode.
