[R] Issues whenWorking with Daily Time Series and Generating Forecasts

[Paul Bernal]

Dear friend, yes,

When I generate the forecasts i want the output to include the original
series, the fitted vaules and the forecast and I want the x-axis to show
all dates (both the dates of the historical series plus the future dares in
YYYY-mm-dd format).

Thank you so much for your kind and valuable help.

Cheers,

Paul
