[R-SIG-Finance] Blotter package - problem with example.

[Brian G. Peterson]

You did not provide a reproducible example, only a slice from some other 
code. 

I do not see the problem you describe in the 'blotter' demos or in any 
of my code. 

Please provide more information, and your name would be nice too.

Regards,
