Re: [R] Time and xts

2011-01-18 Thread rnick

Hi all,

Gabor came up with a very nice of code for my request:

Lines - DateTimeOpenHighLow Close
1/2/200517:05   1.3546  1.3553  1.3546  1.35495
1/2/200517:10   1.3553  1.3556  1.3549  1.35525
1/2/200517:15   1.3556  1.35565 1.35515 1.3553
1/2/200517:25   1.355   1.3556  1.355   1.3555
2/13/2006   5:201.18895 1.18925 1.18835 1.1885

library(zoo)
library(chron)

z - read.zoo(textConnection(Lines), header = TRUE, index = list(1, 2),
 FUN = function(d,t) as.chron(paste(d, t), format = %m/%d/%Y %H:%M))

z$New - z$Open + z$High
zz - z[hours(time(z)) = 2  hours(time(z)) = 8]

The result is:

 zz
   Open High  Low Close  New
(02/13/06 05:20:00) 1.19 1.19 1.19  1.19 2.38

However, my original code needs a for loop. 

Any ideas on how to identify the z positions where time is between 2:00:00
and 07:55:00. 
Could i do it with the following structure?


Lines- DateTimeOpenHighLow Close
1/2/200517:05   1.3546  1.3553  1.3546  1.35495
1/2/200517:10   1.3553  1.3556  1.3549  1.35525
1/2/200517:15   1.3556  1.35565 1.35515 1.3553
1/2/200517:25   1.355   1.3556  1.355   1.3555
2/13/2006   5:201.18895 1.18925 1.18835 1.1885

library(zoo)
library(chron)

z- read.zoo(textConnection(Lines), header = TRUE, index = list(1, 2), FUN =
function(d,t) as.chron(paste(d, t), format = %m/%d/%Y %H:%M))

n=5

entrytrade-function(k)

{

   new[k]-open[k]+high[k]
}

for (x in seq(from=1,to=n,by=1))
{
while (z[time(x)=2   time(x)=7:55])
{
entrytrade(x)
}
}

Based on what i have seen the problem lies in the for loop and more
specifically in the while statement. That's the error i get:

Error in while (z[time(x) = 2  time(x) = 7:55]) { : 
  argument is of length zero

Thanks

[R] Time and xts

2011-01-16 Thread rnick

Hi all,
I have run into a problem and some help would be highly appreciated.
I have a .csv with the following columns:
DateTimeOpenHighLow Close
1/2/200517:05   1.3546  1.3553  1.3546  1.35495
1/2/200517:10   1.3553  1.3556  1.3549  1.35525
1/2/200517:15   1.3556  1.35565 1.35515 1.3553
1/2/200517:25   1.355   1.3556  1.355   1.3555
….
…..
2/13/2006   5:201.18895 1.18925 1.18835 1.1885

1)  Without using zoo, xts or any other time series object, I am trying to
run this code but fails to pass the argument to the function

#n is the length of the series

for (t in seq(from=10,to=n,by=1))
{
while (time[t]=='02:00:00')
{
entrytrade(t)
}
}
Is this possible to do? If yes, any ideas what I am doing wrong?

2)  I have also tried with xts by creating the object like this
lines-data.frame(date,time,open,high,low,close)
z - read.zoo(lines, header = TRUE, index = list(1, 2), FUN = function(d,t)
as.POSIXct(paste(date,time), format = %m/%d/%Y %H:%M)) 
x-as.xts(z)

However, I am unable to call just the time and run the above for loop. any
ideas here?

Thanks

[R] How to combine Date and time in one column

2010-11-21 Thread rnick

Hello everyone,

I am trying to built an xts object and i have run into some problems on the
data handling. I would really appreciate if someone could help me with the
following:

1) I have a OHLC dataset with Time and date in different columns. How could
i combine date and time in one column in order to pass on the new column to
xts? I have use cbind and data.frame before but i did not manage to yield
any good results as the formating of the file changes.

DateTime   OH   L   
C
1/2/200517:05  1.3546   1.3553  1.3546  1.35495
1/2/200517:10  1.3553   1.3556  1.3549  1.35525
1/2/200517:15  1.3556   1.35565 1.35515 1.3553
1/2/200517:25  1.3551.3556  1.355   1.3555
1/2/200517:30  1.3556   1.3564  1.35535 1.3563
 
2) It is not clear to me what is the best way to construct the .xts object?
Should i use only the Datetime to index or should i also combine it with
the rest of the variables?

Thanks in advance,

N

[R] Simple Function

2010-11-09 Thread rnick

Hi guys, 

Very new to R and your help would be highly appreciated for the following
problem. I am trying to create a simple function which registers values
within an array through a for loop. These are the steps I have followed: 

1) Declared 2 global matrices 
2) Create function mat() with i as an input 
3) constructed the for loop 
4) called mat(2) 

The problem is that when i try to get y[4] and f[5] the output is: [1] NA 
  
my concern is that i am not addressing any of the following topics: 
1) definition of global variable 
2) the argument does not go through the for loop 
3) the matrices definition is not correct
4) the function do not return any values 
4) other.. 

My code is listed below: 

y=c(NA) 
f=c(NA) 
mat-function(i) 
{ 
for (k in i:10) 
{ 
y[k]=k+1 
f[k]=y[k-1]/2   
} 
} 
mat(2) 

Any thoughts or recommendations would be highly appreciated. 

Thanks in advance, 

N
