Dear R Helpers, A few weeks ago I asked for some help on how to accomplish modifications to data in a set of data frames. As part of that request I mentioned that I realized that one way to accomplish my goal was to put the data frames together in a list but that I was looking for a way to do it with data frames and a loop because I "believe the better thing is to work df by df for my

I would like to have a function which gets data, does a calculation and prints a result and then waits some number of seconds and repeats. If I use Sys.sleep, the execution is pausing but the function output is buffered so that it all comes out when the function terminates. How can I get output while the function continues to execute?

Hello, I'm trying to do two things: -1. Ensure that I understand how quantmod adjust's OHLC data -2. Determine how I ought to adjust my data. My overarching-goal is to adjust my OHLC data appropriately to minimize the difference between my backtest returns, and the returns I would get if I was trading for real (which I'll be doing shortly). Background: -1. I'm using Alpha

Hi, I work with SEXP C code and with xts and quantmod packages. I try to touch how xts internal works.

Dear R Helpers, I am still having trouble with the getOptionChain command in quantmod. I have the latest version of quantmod, etc. so I was under the impression that the problem was solved with updates to the package. If someone could let me know what I need to install in order to make this work, I would really appreciate it. My error message as session info are shown below. Thanks a bunch.

Dear Sir/Madam, How to use getSymbols() to get annual data? For example, I need the annual stock price of APPLE from the year 2000 to 2016. How to write the command?

I'm sure there is a more general way to ask this question but how do you use the elements of a character vector as names of objects in an expression? For example, say you have: a = c(1,3,5,7) b = c(2,4,6,8) n=c("a","b") and you want to use the names a and b in a function (e.g. sum) sum(eval(as.name(n[1])),eval(as.name(n[2]))) works but what is a simpler way to

Hello, all-- I am having some fun playing with the graphing in quantmod-- very nice! I am writing a function to calculate (and hopefully plot) support and resistance lines, but the usual plot call of "abline(h=value)" does not seem to work. Here's my code: require(quantmod) AAPL<-getYahooData("AAPL") candleChart(AAPL,subset="last 3

Hi Dirk, Thanks for your note. I understand that expiry dates are the dates that the option expires, so I don't think that I am confused about that (although the upper limits of one's confusion is difficult to accurately estimate). My lack of clarity come from treating those "dates" as actual dates as opposed to strings, which one could reasonably interpret them to be from

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

Dear R users, I am trying to use tseries' garch function in order to determine the volatility of a return series generated by quantmod.
