i modified the code as follow :
def bar_plot(data, Yval, datamin=None, datamax=None):
""" doc """
x = data[0]
y = data[1]
# reduce dataset based on min max date
if datamin != datamax != None :
x = data[0][np.where((data[0]>=datamin) & (data[0]<=datamax))[0]]
y = data[1][np.where((data[0]>=datamin) & (data[0]<=datamax))[0]]
# index for labeling
xp = np.where((y<=0))[0]
xn = np.where((y>0))[0]
xx = np.where((y>0) | (y<=0))[0]
# extract positive and negative values
x_p = x[np.where(y>=0)[0]]
y_p = y[np.where(y>=0)[0]]
x_n = x[np.where(y<0)[0]]
y_n = y[np.where(y<0)[0]]
# start plotting code
fig = plt.figure(figsize=(15,5))
width = 0.7
plt.autoscale(enable=True, axis='both', tight=True)
plt.bar(xn, y_n, width, color='blue', lw=2)
plt.xticks(xx + (width/1.2), x)
plt.autoscale(enable=True, axis='both', tight=True)
plt.bar(xp, y_p, width, color='red', lw=2)
plt.title(Yval)
fig.autofmt_xdate()
plt.xlabel("Year")
plt.ylabel(Yval)
plt.axhline(0, color='black', lw=2)
plt.grid(True)
