Trying to plot intraday data on multiple daily plots

Hi all again,

Thanks Joshua, you were absolutely correct in the error you spotted.
I fixed it by inserting;
    date<-toString(datte)
before the chart_Series instruction. (See in edit to my original post below)

But I still couldn't get the plotting from chart_Series to work within the loop.

I was using chart_Series (still in alpha?) because I needed the   par(mfrow=c(5,5))   which is not available in chartSeries.
And the chart_Series gave me problems with the graphing not working in the loop?

Anyway, I decided to go the pdf-route. I instead use chartSeries with output to a pdf which is stable. And printed the pdf with 16 pages on one page. This is a perfectly working workaround waiting for a stable chart_Series.

Thanks to all package developers, all time you spent on the packages has made life much easier for me.

Regards,
Matti Zemack

Your example isn't reproducible and I don't have example data at hand,
so here's my guess: "datte" is a Date class object, but (according to
?chart_Series) the subset argument of chart_Series is supposed to be a
character string.

mzGSPCdaily<-to.daily(mzGSPC5)
for (i in 1:length(mzGSPCdaily[,1])) {
 datte<-as.Date(time(mzGSPCdaily[i]))

datteStr<-toString(datte)

 print(datteStr)   #This works and prints the dates "2011-08-01", "2011-08-02"...
 chart_Series(mzGSPC5, subset=datteStr)
