I'm trying to plot a ibm stock time series. I made the download of that series, ibm <- get.hist.quote(instrument = "ibm", start = "2003-01-01",quote=c("CL")) And ibm is a serie wiht this characteristic: Start = 37623 End = 37960 Frequency = 1 When I try to plot it, ts.plot(ibm) In the graphic the axe time is represented by 37623 ... 37960, How can I put

I've been using R for a while, but now find myself needing to understand time-series objects for a short course I am teaching. I am putting together some daily financial datasets for illustration, but having some trouble in aggregating the data to months or weeks. I am getting a "cannot change frequency from 1 to 12" message. I am not sure that aggregation is where I want to go

R version 2.12.0, 64 bit on Windows. Here is a short script that illustrates the problem: library(tseries) library(xts) setwd('C:\\cygwin\\home\\Ted\\New.Task\\NKs-01-08-12\\NKs\\tests') x = read.table("quotes_h.2.dat", header = FALSE, sep="\t", skip=0) str(x) y <- data.frame(as.POSIXlt(paste(x$V2,substr(x$V4,4,8),sep=" "),format='%Y-%m-%d

Hi I have som financial tick data that i have converted in to 45 min bars. These are unequally spaced in time. I wonder if it is possible to plot these like bars as the plotOHLC does. As I have understood plotOHLC uses class(mts) that must be equally spaced? Regards Paer [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, I am having a problem with the get.hist.quote command (tseries library) in the Windows version. This problem is not happening is the Linux version (Mandrake 8.2). Attached is the error message, for an example included in the help file. Also the R.Version() details is attached. Please, do you know if there is a workaround ? Thanks, Carlos. ++++++++++++++++++++++++ ERROR MESSAGE

Hi ALL: I am trying to use get.help.quote from library(tseries). I tried to run the example from help(get.hist.quote) but R complained. Here is the command I used and the response: ibm <- get.hist.quote(instrument = "ibm", start = "1998-01-01") trying URL

Hi, i really positive surprised when i found the "get.hist.quote" but didn't now why i get with the examples from Online-Help errorMessages. Perhaps their is a problem with POSIX and my OS WIN2000/R1.5.1 ? Thanks for advance & regards,Christian $ ibm <- get.hist.quote(instrument = "ibm", start = "1998-01-01") trying URL `

Both get.hist.quote, and its derivative priceIts, rely on download.file() to fetch financial data series from Yahoo! in .csv format. They allow for nice interactive demonstrations of what one can do with R. Unfortunately, both are currently broken as Yahoo! decided to add a somewhat useless html comment at the end of the csv 'stream', breaking the regular format of n rows with k columns.

Dear R People: In library(its), there is a command priceIts. There is a problem with this command. It is returning an error message: > ibm1 <- priceIts(instrument="ibm",start="1998-01-01",quote="Open") Error in download.file(url, destfile, method = method, quiet = quiet) : cannot open URL

I want to create a open/high/low/last plot of intraday data. I try to use the function plotOHLC from the tsteries package.

Hi R users, I have a problem in downloading Yahoo Finance data from R. I have tried an example given in R, to download.

I find it's just great to be able to say: library(tseries) x <- get.hist.quote(instrument="ongc.ns") and it gets a full time-series of the stock price of the symbol ongc.ns from Yahoo quote. However, once my hopes have been raised by such beauty :-) I get disappointed when I do > plot(x) and the annotation is horrible! The x axis is not labelled as dates. The default

I am trying to create a high low close style chart but I keep getting the following error statement; "x is not a open/high/low/close time series". I've used the function is.ts and R responds TRUE but the ohlcPlot function gives the above error statement. I'm actually planning to plot some odds ratios with their confidence intervals and the hi-low-close chart should do the

I have a general question. Is there a setting that can be used for a multiple line type? The situation is that I want a solid line between x and y points but if the y point is missing, I want a dashed line type to the next point. In other words, if point 1 to 2 exists, make that line solid, otherwise, make it dashed up to the next existing x/y point. Additionally, what plot type would you
