similar to: quantmod Some Single Letter Tickers Not getFin

Dear R Helpers, I am trying to change the name of an object using the assign function. When I use paste on the new object but not the old, everything is fine: The new object is a direct copy of the old object. When I use a paste for both the new and the old object, however, the new object is simply the character representation of the old object name, not the old object itself. The example

Dear R Helpers, I am trying to adjust the attribute of an R object pulled from quantmod. Since I want to do this for many such objects, I was trying to make the adjustment programmatic. Unfortunately, I am having a huge amount of trouble using attr in combination with paste (and perhaps get, and perhaps assign, none of which seem to help). When I hard-code the change it works fine. Your help

Hi all, I would need to put datas downloaded with quantmod into a matrix or a data frame. Suppose to start from here: *require(quantmod) ticker.list <- c('AAA', 'ALTSALES', 'AMBNS', 'AMBSL', 'BAA', 'EMRATIO', 'FEDFUNDS', 'GASPRICE', 'GS1', 'GS10', 'GS20', 'LNS14100000', 'MORTG',

I want to get data for a set of ticker symbols and compute the daily return of the adjusted close using quantmod, and then scatterplot returns using pairs(). The following gets data for the list of tickers: tickers <- c("SHY","TLT","SPY","IWM","GLD","IEV","ILF","EWJ","EPP","SAF","ASA")

Dear R Helpers, I have run into a problem trying to perform a number of actions on a set of quantmod data objects through a loop and I am hoping that this is an easy problem for someone else as opposed to very difficult for me. The example task is to get the first three objects of the quarterly balance sheet for a number of companies from the getFinancials object and put them together into a

If I have the string below. does someone know a regular expression to just get the "BLC.NYSE". I bought the O'Reilley book and read it when I can and I study the solutions on the list but I'm still not self sufficient with these things. Thanks. stock<-"/opt/limsrv/mark/research/equity/projects/testDL/stock_data/fhdb/US/BLC.NYSE"

Hi R, I am familiar with the basics of R. To learn more I would like how to get data from Yahoo!finance directly into R. So basically I want a data frame or matrix to do some data analysis. How do I do this? Thank you very much.

Dear R Helpers, I am trying to write a character value to the row of a data frame and am running into a problem that I don't have when I do this for numeric arguments. For example, the following works just fine: > test<-data.frame(number=numeric(1)) > test[1,]<-.5 > test number 1 0.5 But the following bombs out: > hold<-data.frame(symbol=character(1)) >

Dear All, I'm new at R, but I really just need a couple of things. The first thing I need is to figure out how to get each individual financial statement (CF,BS,IS). I need each individual one because getting them all at once allows for formatting issues once it is a CSV. The date subsetting is what I need because I will be running a statistical model in excel. I know I could probably

Hi David, I tried the following and get the below error messages.... con = blpConnect(show.days="trading",na.action="previous.days",periodicity="da ily")# connecting Bloomberg > dat <- blpGetData(con,"US4009703799 Equity","PX_LAST",start=as.chron(as.Date("01/01/2005",

Hi R, Can I convert ISIN numbers into Bloomberg tickers in the RBloomberg package? BR, Shubha [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi R Helpers, Is it possible to interpret the top level of the list as a date after downloading all the option chain data for a ticker? For example, after I run aapl_total<-getOptionChain("AAPL", NULL) the top descriptor of the lists is a date (Mar.09.2018, Mar.23.2018, etc.). So if want to subset down to those parts of the list that correspond to say, (expiration)

Package? The **names** of the top levels of your lists, "Mar.09.2018", "Mar.23.2018" certainly look like dates and if they are -- I have no idea what package/context is -- they certainly could be formatted as such. See e.g. "date-time" . There are also several package that provide date tools. Cheers, Bert Bert Gunter "The trouble with having an open mind is

Hi, all I wanted to fetch data from Bloomberg for govt bonds, and analyse it further. I am having trouble in getting data as when I use field=PX_LAST, it is giving the prices but when I use field=CPN, or ISSUE_DT, it is not giving the results and just bouncing back <NA> for that. This is the piece of code: > library(rJava) Warning message: package 'rJava' was built

Package? Quantmod. In the subject line. I agree that they look like dates, I don't know how to determine if they are actually dates. Josh Ulrich usually answers questions along these lines very informatively and quickly. One reasonable course of action is to wait to see if he does the same with this one. --JJS ________________________________ From: Bert Gunter <bgunter.4567 at

Hello! I am trying to identify which ones of a vector of dates are US holidays. And, ideally, which is which. And I do not know (a-priori) which dates those should be. I have, for example: x<-seq(as.Date("2011-01-01"),as.Date("2011-12-31"),by="day") (x) I think chron should help me here - but maybe I am not using it properly: library(chron) is.holiday(chron) #

Hi, I'm new to R and Quantmod. I'm trying to make use of Quantmod's features however I'm failing at the first hurdle and I'm finding most R documentation a little cryptic. I have some minutely data for the same day for a stock in an existing timeSeries (ts) object. For example: Date time price volume 2012-03-12 08:01 45.01 10000 2012-03-12 08:02

OpCl works on xts objects but not on quantmod.OHLC objects. Is this a bug? Example error: x.Date <- as.Date("2003-02-01") + c(1, 3, 7, 9, 14) - 1 set.seed(1) x <- zoo(matrix(runif(20, 0, 1), nrow=5, ncol=4), x.Date) q <- as.quantmod.OHLC(x,c("Open","High","Low","Close")) # error OpCl(q) #> Error in `colnames<-`(`*tmp*`, value =
