for the record I had to put the buffer on the set_limit commands, not the "extent" of the image, like so:
priceDiff = max(price)-min(price) diffQuant = priceDiff / 4 minQuant = min(price)-diffQuant maxQuant = max(price)+diffQuant pl.set_ylim([minQuant,maxQuant]) and also include: pl.set_xlim([min(date),max(date)]) to get it working just right. Just for posterity.
