Candlestick chart of a coin's prices — plot

Plots the daily open, high, low and close prices, with a line through the close, its moving averages, date range buttons and a range slider. Underneath, smaller charts show the trading volume and the drawdown: how far the price is below its all-time high so far. A click on a legend entry hides or shows that line.

Usage

plot_timeseries(
  history,
  mode = "light",
  averages = c(50, 200),
  show_drawdown = TRUE
)

Arguments

history: Price history of one coin from get_history(). The averages and the drawdown use the whole history, so pass all of it and zoom with the range buttons.
mode: "light" (the default) or "dark", to suit a light or dark page.
averages: Days of the moving averages to draw (see moving_average()), or NULL for none.
show_drawdown: TRUE to add the drawdown chart (see drawdown()).

Value

A plotly object.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
btc <- get_history("Bitcoin (BTC)", as.Date("2013-04-29"))
plot_timeseries(btc)

# shorter averages, and no drawdown chart
plot_timeseries(btc, averages = c(20, 100), show_drawdown = FALSE)
} # }
