Subject: Problem with plot.xts
In-Reply-To: <676b0d530912221609kd03bd97v20458af2d01ea25f@mail.gmail.com>
Pierre,
xts wasn't meant to include much in the way of graphics. quantmod was
designed for that.
For more complete standard graphical capabilities simply convert to zoo.
plot(as.zoo(x))
If there is a need at some point that can't be sufficiently addressed
with zoo or quantmod, it may be a good case for extending xts in that
direction, but for now the above alternatives are better.
Best,
Jeff
