Hi Anna,
I guess it happened because the range of datas[1:n, 2] differs from the
range of datas[1:n, 3]. A workaround would be either to use the maplot()
function as follows or figuring out their ranges and then plug them in as
the ylim argument in the plot call.
Here is a suggestion using matplot()
matplot(datas[1:n,1], cbind(datas[1:n, 2:3]), type="l", main = "SP500 Prices
and Moving
Averages", xlab = "Date", ylab = "Prices",col = c("black","green"), lty = 1)
See ?matplot for details.
And for what you had before:
plot(datas[1:n,1],datas[1:n,2],type="l",main="SP500 Prices and Moving
Averages",xlab="Date",ylab="Prices",col="black",
ylim = c( min(datas[1:n, 2], datas[1:n, 3]), max(datas[1:n, 2], datas[1:n,
3])))
lines(datas[1:n,1],datas[1:n,3],type="l",col="green",lty="solid")
HTH,
Jorge
