R/chart.TimeSeries.R

#' Creates a time series chart with some extensions.
#' 
#' Draws a line chart and labels the x-axis with the appropriate dates.  This
#' is really a "primitive", since it extends the base \code{\link{plot}} and
#' standardizes the elements of a chart.  Adds attributes for shading areas of
#' the timeline or aligning vertical lines along the timeline. This function is
#' intended to be used inside other charting functions.
#' 
#' 
#' @param R an xts, vector, matrix, data frame, timeSeries or zoo object of
#' asset returns
#' @param auto.grid if true, draws a grid aligned with the points on the x and
#' y axes
#' @param grid.color sets the color for the reference grid
#' @param grid.lty defines the line type for the grid
#' @param xaxis if true, draws the x axis
#' @param yaxis if true, draws the y axis
#' @param yaxis.right if true, draws the y axis on the right-hand side of the
#' plot
#' @param type set the chart type, same as in \code{\link{plot}}
#' @param lty set the line type, same as in \code{\link{plot}}
#' @param lwd set the line width, same as in \code{\link{plot}}
#' @param las set the axis label rotation, same as in \code{\link{plot}}
#' @param main set the chart title, same as in \code{\link{plot}}
#' @param ylab set the y-axis label, same as in \code{\link{plot}}
#' @param xlab set the x-axis label, same as in \code{\link{plot}}
#' @param date.format re-format the dates for the xaxis; the default is "\%m/\%y"
#' @param xlim set the x-axis limit, same as in \code{\link{plot}}
#' @param ylim set the y-axis limit, same as in \code{\link{plot}}
#' @param event.lines If not null, vertical lines will be drawn to indicate
#' that an event happened during that time period.  \code{event.lines} should
#' be a list of dates (e.g., \code{c("09/03","05/06"))} formatted the same as
#' date.format.  This function matches the re-formatted row names (dates) with
#' the events.list, so to get a match the formatting needs to be correct.
#' @param event.labels if not null and event.lines is not null, this will apply
#' a list of text labels (e.g., \code{c("This Event", "That Event")} to the
#' vertical lines drawn.  See the example below.
#' @param period.areas these are shaded areas described by start and end dates
#' in a vector of xts date rangees, e.g.,
#' \code{c("1926-10::1927-11","1929-08::1933-03")} See the examples below.
#' @param event.color draws the event described in \code{event.labels} in the
#' color specified
#' @param period.color draws the shaded region described by \code{period.areas}
#' in the color specified
#' @param colorset color palette to use, set by default to rational choices
#' @param pch symbols to use, see also \code{\link{plot}}
#' @param element.color provides the color for drawing chart elements, such as
#' the box lines, axis lines, etc. Default is "darkgray"
#' @param legend.loc places a legend into one of nine locations on the chart:
#' bottomright, bottom, bottomleft, left, topleft, top, topright, right, or
#' center.
#' @param ylog TRUE/FALSE set the y-axis to logarithmic scale, similar to
#' \code{\link{plot}}, default FALSE
#' @param date.format.in allows specification of other date formats in the data
#' object, defaults to "\%Y-\%m-\%d"
#' @param cex.axis The magnification to be used for axis annotation relative to
#' the current setting of 'cex', same as in \code{\link{plot}}.
#' @param cex.legend The magnification to be used for sizing the legend
#' relative to the current setting of 'cex'.
#' @param cex.labels The magnification to be used for event line labels
#' relative to the current setting of 'cex'.
#' @param cex.lab The magnification to be used for x- and y-axis labels
#' relative to the current setting of 'cex'.
#' @param cex.main The magnification to be used for the chart title relative to
#' the current setting of 'cex'.
#' @param major.ticks Should major tickmarks be drawn and labeled, default
#' 'auto'
#' @param minor.ticks Should minor tickmarks be drawn, default TRUE
#' @param xaxis.labels Allows for non-date labeling of date axes, default is
#' NULL
#' @param space default 0
#' @param \dots any other passthru parameters

    # DESCRIPTION:
    # Draws a line chart and labels the x-axis with the appropriate dates.
    # This is really a "primitive", since it constructs the elements of a plot
    # to provide lines for each column of data provided.  

    # Inputs:
    # R = assumes that data is a regular time series, not irregular.  Can take
    # any type of object, whether a matrix, data frame, or timeSeries.
    # date.format: allows passing of a date format for the xaxis
    # legend.loc = use this to locate the legend, e.g., "topright"
    # colorset = use the name of any of the palattes above
    # reference.grid = if true, draws a grid aligned with the points on the
    #    x and y axes.
    # xaxis = if true, draws the x axis.
    # event.lines = if not null, will draw vertical lines indicating that an
    #    event happened during that time period.  event.lines should be a list
    #    of dates (e.g., c("09/03","05/06")) formatted the same as date.format.
    #    This function matches the re-formatted row names (dates) with the
    #    events.list, so to get a match the formatting needs to be correct.
    # event.labels = if not null and event.lines is not null, this will apply
    #    labels to the vertical lines drawn.

    # All other inputs are the same as "plot" and are principally included
    # so that some sensible defaults could be set.

    # Output:
    # Draws a timeseries graph of type "line" with some sensible defaults.
