Time Series Plots

Description

Plot time series with specific plotting parameters

Usage

tsPlotMP(
  ret,
  add.grid = FALSE,
  layout = NULL,
  type = "l",
  yname = "RETURNS (%)",
  Pct = F,
  scaleType = "free",
  stripLeft = TRUE,
  main = NULL,
  lwd = 1,
  stripText.cex = 1,
  axis.cex = 1,
  color = "black",
  zeroLine = TRUE,
  panel = NULL
)

Arguments

ret

an time series exposure/return object

add.grid

logical varible.If 'TRUE', type = c('l', 'g'); If 'FALSE', type = c('l')

layout

layout is a numeric vector of length 2 or 3 giving the number of columns, rows, and pages (optional) in a multipanel display.

type

character. type of the plot; 'l' denotes a line, 'p' denotes a point, and 'b' and 'o' both denote both together.deafault is 'l'.

yname

character or espression giving label(s) for the y-axis

Pct

Pct controls if use the percentage value.

scaleType

scaleType controls if use a same scale of y-axis, choose from c('same', 'free')

stripLeft

logical variable to choose the position of strip, 'TRUE' for drawing strips on the left of each panel, 'FALSE' for drawing strips on the top of each panel

main

Typically a character string or expression describing the main title.

lwd

The line width, a positive number, defaulting to 1

stripText.cex

a number indicating the amount by which strip text in the plot(s) should be scaled relative to the default. 1=default, 1.5 is 50% larger, 0.5 is 50% smaller, etc.

axis.cex

a number indicating the amount by which axis in the plot(s) should be scaled relative to the default. 1=default, 1.5 is 50% larger, 0.5 is 50% smaller, etc.

color

A specification for the default plotting color. Default is black.

zeroLine

logical varible to choose add a dotted horizontal line at the zero vertical distance

panel

function to add customized lines to the lattice plot. See examples.

Examples


#Load the data
data("stocks145scores6")
dat = stocks145scores6
returns = tapply(dat$RETURN, list(dat$DATE, dat$TICKER), I)
ret = xts::xts(returns[,1:5], zoo::as.yearmon(rownames(returns)))

#generate return time series plot               
tsPlotMP(ret, color = 'Blue')
tsPlotMP(ret, scaleType = "same", zeroLine = FALSE)
tsPlotMP(ret, stripLeft = FALSE, main = 'Time Series Plot')
tsPlotMP(ret, stripLeft = FALSE, main = 'Time Series Plot', layout = c(3,3))

# example to add customized lines (abline)
tsPlotMP(ret, color = 'Blue',main='test',zeroLine=FALSE,panel=function(...){
			panel.abline(v = 2000, lty = 3)
			panel.abline(h = 0, lty = 3) 
			panel.abline(h = 0.1, lty = 3)
			panel.abline(h = -0.1, lty = 3)
			panel.xyplot(...)})
