Ah, scoping rules... Consider: f <- function(x,...) plot(x,xlim=c(low,high),...) f(1:10,low=2,high=9) # "Error ... object 'low' not found "
But: f <- function(x,low,high,...) plot(x,xlim=c(low,high),...) f(1:10,2,9,col=2) # beautiful red points [low,high] Sorry I can't be more specific but never heard of quantmod. Hope this helps anyway.
