Following off-list emails with Mark, I tracked down how to do this
automatically, for the thread...

It is document in ?par in the section on xaxs and yaxs (x and y axis
styles). This defaults to "r", which adds/subtracts 4% to the x/ylims,
so,

plot(aggfxdata[,"logbidask"], main = "", col = 4)
lines(rollmeanlogbidask, col = 2)
usr <- par("usr")
# extend range of data by 4%
rany <- (max(lt) - min(lt)) * 0.04
par(usr = c(usr[1:2], min(lt) - rany, max(lt) + rany))
lines(lt, lty = 2)
axis(4, at = pretty(range(lt)), tck = -0.02)

the above does exactly as I'd done before, but automagically.
