FWIW %m is the proper conversion for months. %M is minutes.
Looks like a bug.

Hi Russ,
Colnames don't get rewritten if they already exist. The reason is due to
performance and how cbind is written at the R level.
It isn't perfect per se, but the complexity and variety of dispatch that can
take place for cbind in R, as it isn't a generic, is quite challenging to get

There is a struggle in documentation that revolves around being too brief to
be useful and too verbose which then is often ignored. In general, R
"proper" is far less verbose than quantmod docs - so if you have trouble

A very simple option, since you're only looking to efficiently store

There is a new rredis (redis) package on CRAN, as well as the

Firstly, don't cross-post.
Second, take a look at the archives on both these lists for answers to

OandA now limits fills to 500 days (as indicated by the error). You can of
course just request 500 days at a time. The function itself will not
automatically do that as that would be clearly abusing the rules that OandA
have established. Of course what you do with your own code is your own

The data.table package may be more in line with what you are after, but xts
and zoo can also do what you need in this particular example:

This is a bug. It has now been fixed in the R-forge source.
I will be updating the package in the next week or so with about a dozen
more indicators, as well as some additional features. At that point I will
push the change to CRAN.
Thanks,

Take a look at xts, a time series class that extends zoo and is compatible
(forward and backwards) with all major time-series classes, including
timeSeries from Rmetrics.
It has a few functions that may be of interest:
?endpoints
?period.apply
It may also be useful to use the Fortran-based aggr
This is expected behavior:

Usage:
x[i]
x[i, j, ... , drop = TRUE]
drop: For matrices and arrays. If 'TRUE' the result is coerced to
the lowest possible dimension (see the examples). This only
works for extracting elements, not for the replacement. See
Using quantmod and TTR (for EMA, as well as many, many more technical tools):
library(quantmod)
# get some data
getSymbols("")
barChart()
addEMA()

Take a look at the fOptions package, as well as all the packages in Rmetrics
(see www.rmetrics.org).
There is also a wrapper to QuantLib called RQuantLib.
Also, your question would have a better chance of being answered on the
R-sig-finance mailing list.

Have a look at chartSeries in the quantmod package. It can handle
financial style series formatting quite well. Make sure to get the
newest version of xts and quantmod from CRAN - as there have been
recent updates to the charting facility.
Some documentation can be found at http://www.quantmod.co
Hi Thomas,
The issue is probably the quantmod package being outdated. Try to

they had some issue, and I haven't settled on a way to address yet. I

Hi Thomas,
You may want to check out the quantmod package. There is a whole

You will need to change the 'Last' colname to Close, but other than
that your data should work. If you download the most recent build or
