Hi all,
I am a new user of quantmod package (version 0.3-8) and I have some
problems.
I would like to add shaded regions to a chart.
1. I tried the following commands (from slide presentation of Jeff Ryan)
getSymbols('^FCHI',source="yahoo")
CAC=FCHI
candleChart(CAC,theme="white",subset='2012-05::2012-08',TA=NULL)
addTA(RSI(Cl(CAC))>50,col="green",border=NA,on=-1)
addTA(RSI(Cl(CAC))>40 & RSI(Cl(CAC))<50 ,col="red",border=NA,on=-1)
addTA(RSI(Cl(CAC)) ,on=NA)
So the first region RSI(Cl(CAC))>50 is correctly shaded, but the second
region
RSI(Cl(CAC))>40 & RSI(Cl(CAC))<50 isn't. So I supposed a bug with
bollean vectors
with addTA() ?
2. On the web, I found a mail from Jeff Ryan and he proposed to use the
function xts()
>times <- timeBasedSeq(20071001/2007) # create a Date sequence from 2007-10-01 to 2007-12-31
>addTA(xts(rep(TRUE,length(times)), times), on=-1, col="#333333", border=NA)
Nevertheless, this command gives me an error concerning the function rect().
3. I also tried to use the function newAT() without success.. :-(
Best Regards,
O.
