Hi, I cannot figure out how to change the index format when displaying POSIXct objects. Would like the xts index to display as %H:%M:%OS3 when doing viewing the xts object. Think I am missing the obvious.

Hi, Please can you tell me what I am doing wrong. When trying to merge two xts objects, one of which has multiple character vectors for columns...I am just getting NAs. > str(t) POSIXct[1:1], format: "2011-01-04 11:45:37" > y2 = xts(matrix(c(letters[1:10]),5), order.by=as.POSIXct(c(t + 1:5))) > names(y2) = c(1,2) > y2 1 2 2011-01-04 11:45:38

Have 40,000 rows of buy/sell trade data and am trying to add up the buys for each second, the code works but it is very slow. Any suggestions how to improve the sapply function ? secEP = endpoints(xSym$Direction, "secs") # vector of last second on an XTS timeseries object with multiple entries for each second. d = xSym$Direction s = xSym$Size buySize = sapply(1:(length(secEP)-1),

Is there an elegant way to do operations (+/-/*/ / ) on zoo/xts objects when one serie is monthly (end of month) and the other daily (weekdays only) - typically a monthly economic indicator and a stock index price?

Hi, I'd like to make a time series at an annual frequency. > a<-xts(x=c(2,4,5), order.by=c("1991","1992","1993")) Error in xts(x = c(2, 4, 5), order.by = c("1991", "1992", "1993")) : order.by requires an appropriate time-based object > a<-xts(x=c(2,4,5), order.by=1991:1993) Error in xts(x = c(2, 4, 5), order.by =

library(xts) library(TTR) ndx = getYahooData("^NDX") aa = ndx$Close bb = aggregate(aa, as.yearweek, tail, 1) The last operation takes forever, and then the bb dates are messed up. The following produces the desired result: time(aa) = as.Date(time(aa)) bb = aggregate(aa, as.yearweek, tail, 1) The index of ndx and aa is of POSIXct (as reported by is(time(ndx))) , which apparently

R-listers, I am using xts with a yearmon index, but am getting some inconsistent results with the date index when i drop observations (for example by using na.omit). The issue is illustrated in the example below. If I start with a monthly zooreg series starting in 2009, yearmon converts this to "Dec-2008". Not such a worry for my example, but strange. Having converted to xts, i drop

Hello, I'm very interested in using financial time series data, but I'm a beginner of R programming. I'd like to fully understand internal logics on several time-series related packages such as quantmod, xts, zoo, chron, etc. So, I read some books, 'R Cookbook' and 'Art of R Programming' and another simple tutorials. But I still can't understand grammars of the

So I've got a 154 column wide xts time series object and I want to plot the 154 series on a single plot and have the added benefit of the time series dates on the x axis. Any suggestions for plotting functions, maplot works but does not give dates on the axis and I can't seem to get plot to give me more than one series. Nick [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I am wondering if there is a good way to work with data that is indexed in time, via timestamps with a resolution in milliseconds. As I understand it, the POSIX classes have a resolution i n terms of seconds, and will not process fractional seconds from a string. Is this correct. I realize that this may be a little unclear. Here is what I am trying to do: A data frame with a time series

Hi, Have been having trouble trying to figure out the right regex parameters to remove the last "." in timestamp with the following format: Convert 09:30:00.377.853 to 09:30:00.377853 Thanks, Chris -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Regex-to-remove-last-character-tp3172466p3172466.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Folks, I have some weekly dataseries that I convert to monthly xts (with yearmon indices), and obtain the two following extracts: > str(sig) An 'xts' object from Apr 1998 to Sep 1998 containing: Data: num [1:6, 1] 0.0083 0.2799 -0.2524 -0.0119 0.18 ... - attr(*, "dimnames")=List of 2 ..$ : NULL ..$ : chr "e1" Indexed by objects of class: [yearmon] TZ:

Hi R programmers, I have stumbled across what seems a very simple problem. My goal is to create a xts time series object which contains vectors as values. In other words, I try to create something like this: 2009-01-01 => c('aa', 'bb', 'dd') ... 2010-02-01 => c('mm') I have figured out parts of separately. Here's what works (new xts time-series with

Hello, I apologize that I am cross posting here after getting no answer from my initial question on stack overflow <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33492601/r-setoldclass-only-if-needed>. I should certainly have posted it first here.. I am using 3 packages: - xts - quantmod - 'myPackage' quantmod is creating a union class by doing: setOldClass("xts");

I have two data frames, with two columns each, the first being a Date variable. I would like to convert them to xts objects, indexed by the Date column. I would like to use as.Date and not as.POSIXct as the dateformat. The puzzling fact is that it works for the first one but not the other. Here is a screenshot of the error: > str(DF1) 'data.frame': 367 obs. of 2 variables: $

Dear R-users I am new to R and struggling not to bother the list with silly questions. I read the documentation on xts and searched for some examples over the internet on how to use plot.xts. The xts object is as follows dataxts : An 'xts' object from 2010-06-27 to 2010-08-05 containing: Data: num [1:56161, 1:14] 74 74.2 74.2 74.1 73.9 ... Indexed by objects of

Hello, I noticed something odd when working with data frames and xts objects. If I read in a CSV file, R creates a nice data.frame. This works well. If I then convert to an XTS object, I see that all the values in the data are now quoted. My data is a mix of numeric and character. This is usually seen when converting a data.frame to a matrix, as R will treat all the data as the same class.

I would like to add vertical shaded blocks in plot.xts graphs (like recession periods in FRED graphs) The reason I use plot.xts instead of plot.zoo is that I like the fact that the grid is automatically aligned with major ticks in plot.xts. xblocks() and rect() do not seem to work with plot.xts (only with plot.zoo). Are there any alternative methods that work with plot.xts? Thanks. -- View

I don't know if timeboxing is the correct term to use to accomplish what I'm attempting, so allow me to explain. I have a set n of tagged observations in time series t. What I'm interested in is taking i seconds before and after every n. My code is below: # observations.xts is an xts time series and arg is the number of seconds to for the timebox timeboxes <-
