Title:

Flexible Graphs for Analysis of Financial Data and Time Series

Version:

0.8.0

Description:

Flexible wrappers around R graphics modules 'dygraphs' https://dygraphs.com/ and 'ggplot2' https://ggplot2.tidyverse.org/ to visualize data commonly found in Financial Studies, with an emphasis on time series. Interactive time series plots include multiple options for incorporating external data such as forecasts and events. Other static plots useful for time series data include an intuitive and generic scatter plotter, a boxplot generator suitable for multiple time series, and event study plotters for time series analysis around sets of dates.

fg_scatplot: Easy scatterplot generator, with time specific enhancements

Description

Plots bivariate plots with some time-series specific enhancements. Rather than programmatically describing graph aesthetics, a simple formula-based approach is used. This approach allows quick specification of many customizaton options.

Usage

fg_scatplot(indata,plotform,type="scatter",datecuts=c(7,66),
               noscales="",xdecoration="",ydecoration="",annotatecorners="",
               tsize=3,psize=1,n_color_switch=7,n_hex_switch=400,repel=TRUE,jitter=c(0,0),

               keepcols="", meltvar="variable",melted=NULL)

Arguments

indata

data.frame with columns for (x,y) coordinates and possibly other categorical data or a date column. Alternatively, indata can be in long format with meltvar present. Note that aesthetic characteristics (if used) must be present for both long and wide input formats.

plotform

A text formula describing how to set up the graph. The formula is of the general form

⁠y ~ x + option:<column_name>,<aesthetic category> + ...⁠

where y is plotted against x and aesthetics for each point are controlled by one or more option clauses each followed by zero or more optional parameters. If the option applies to all points then the first parameter column_name must be in indata. By default, points or symbols are plotted. By general category, the options are

Aesthetic options:

⁠color:column<,aes_set>⁠ sets the color of each point or label by data in column
⁠symbol:column<,aes_set>⁠ sets the symbol or shape cof each point or label by data in column
⁠size:column<,aes_set>⁠ sets the size of each point by the data in column

Date specific options:

doi:recent partitions data by number of days in datecutsprior to the last day in indata
⁠doi:<doiset>⁠ partitions data by date ranges obtained from dates of interest set ⁠<doiset>⁠. See fg_get_dates_of_interest()
⁠point:<value|label|anno><all>⁠ adds highlights for either the last date in indata or the last date for each group (if all). value gives coordinates, label the label in the color column, while anno adds lines to each axis.

Text options:

⁠[text|label|labelhilight|tooltips]:column<,aes_set>⁠ : Plots the text in character column as text (without border), label (with border), filled in label, or mouse-over tooltip. (See details)

Other annotations:

ellipse adds an ellipse around the points using ggplot2::stat_ellipse()
⁠hull<:quantile>⁠ draws a convext hull around points with ⁠<quantile>⁠ (default 0) points removed. (See details)
⁠xline<:level=0>⁠ draws a vertical line at level
⁠yline<:level=0>⁠ draws a horizontal line at level
⁠grid:<dotted|dotted_x|dotted_y|none>⁠ formats background grids

type

character string for the type of graph to plot:

scat plots points, text or labels
⁠lm<one><noeqn><nofill>⁠ adds linear regression lines per color category or across all points (lmone).
⁠loess<one><noeqn>⁠adds loess line per per color category or across all points (loessone)
density Creates a density plot

if noeqn is part of the string, equations are suppressed. If one is part of the string, no subcategories are used. 'nofill“ removes confidence bands.

datecuts

list of integers (Default c(7,66) for days prior to last date to make date classes. (See examples and doi:recent as above.)

noscales

String to suppress guides with any of ⁠<color|size|symbol>⁠

xdecoration, ydecoration

2 element string list to add to either side of an axis label.

annotatecorners

4 element string list to add notes to each of 4 quadrants of the graph. See examples.

tsize

default text size (with some scaled variations for graph parts such as titles)

psize

default point size.

n_color_switch

(Default 7): Number of distint color categories beyond which colors are taken from gradient scales, unless a color set is specified in a color part of plotform

n_hex_switch

(Default 400): Number of data points beyond which points are replaced with binned hexagons (see ggplot2::geom_hex())

repel

(Default TRUE) Text and labels are plotted using ggrepel::ggrepel()

jitter

Jitter parameters used by ggplot2::geom_text() or ggplot2::geom_label() if repel=FALSE. Default is no jitter.

title

Title to add to graph

subtitle

Subtitle to add to graph

caption

Caption to add to graph

axislabels

Semicolon separated string with x and y labels, e.g ⁠date;OAS⁠

boundboxtype, boundbox

string describing how to use bounding boxes. If "identify" is part of the string, then data is truncated to the calculated bounding box and notations to that effect are added to the graph. If not, then points outside the box are dropped.

prob|probidentify calculates bounding boxes from quantilies of x and y data. See vignette for details.
value|valueidentify are minimum and maximum values of x and y axes to show. If boundbox is a list of two numbers, the y axis is truncated to those values, If boundbox is a list of 4 numbers c(xmin,xmax,ymin,ymax) data is truncated to that box.

gridstyle

String in ⁠<dotted|dotted_x|dotted_y|none>⁠ to contol grids as in grid option above.

legendinside

(Default: TRUE) Put all guides inside the graph.

tformula

(Default y~x) Formula used within lm or loess stats .

returnregresults

Return a two elemet list c(plot,regression data.frame). Only available for linear models, and uses the first amoung options c("color","symbol","size","alpha") as grouping variables

keepcols

list of indata columns to be kept with the graph data, useful for further faceting using ggplot2::facet_wrap()

meltvar

(Default "variable") If indata is melted, then this is used to create x and y categories.

melted

(Default:NULL) If FALSE forces data not to be melted if meltvar in indata

Details

indata can either be in wide ('date' ,'series1',...) format or normalized (long) format ('date','variable','value',...) format. This package infers date columns names from column types and casts or pivot_wider to get x and y columns. Note that aesthetic characteristics (if used) must be present for both long and wide input formats.

Default aesehetic sets used for portions of the graph each have their own names, which can be seeing by running fg_print_aes_list() and modified or added to using fg_update_aes(). The default theme can be modified using fg_replace_theme(). Both aesthetic changes and theme changes are persistent across R sessions.

Use of ⁠doi:⁠ in plotform string supercedes color aesthetics otherwise specified. (Is this true?)

If tooltips are used, the result of fg_scatplot must be viewed using print(girafe(ggobj=fg_scatplot(...))) See ggiraph::geom_point_interactive()

Winsorized hulls with quantile cutoff q are formed using the closest (by euclidean distance) 1-q points to the geograpic center of the entire set.

Captions are added if data is truncated or omitted by the bounding box procedure.

Value

A ggplot2::ggplot() object with desired graph, or a ggiraph::girafe() object if tooltips is in the plotform string.

`variable`	Any string that can be sorted or grepped to map to data.
`type`	Aesthetic type, in `c("color","colorrange","linetype","symbol","alpha")`
`value`	String with value detired (e.g a color)

variable is used to prioritize colors, so (e.g. D01 will be the color of the first series in an input dataset)

If aestype=="colorrange" then a sequential scale of size n_max will be returned using details saved from fg_update_aes(). See scales::brewer_pal and colorbrewer

Value

No return value, as these are called for the side effects of adding to or replacing aesthetic sets.

extraoptions

Additional options passed to dygraphs::dyOptions()

Details

Input data can either be in wide ('date' ,'series1',...) format or normalized (long) format ('date','variable','value') format. This package infers date columns names from column types and seeks to be as agnostic as possible as to column names. Colors can be managed using fg_update_aes() and will persist across R sessions, See vignette for details. Series are grouped together into bands around a series series if their names end as in 'series.lo' or 'series.hi'. See examples and vignette for details.

Events are dates and date ranges to be highlighted in the graph. Multiple types of events can be strung together in semicolon delimited strings. Of the options outlined above, two additional details are

"doi,<category>" gets events from fg_get_dates_of_interest() which can be added to or managed using fg_update_dates_of_interest(). Colors and label placement can be customized as necessary.
⁠seasonal,<type>⁠ puts regularly occurring events on the graph. ⁠<type>⁠ can be

`⁠<type>⁠`	description
`⁠"optex,mo⁠` \| `⁠qtr"⁠`	Monthly and/or quarterly equity option expiration dates.
`"roll"`	IMM CDS roll dates
`"daysfromroll"`	Dates with same number of days to the next roll as last date plotted
`⁠"doq","doy","bdoy"⁠`	Dates with same day in quarter, in year, or business day of year to the last day plotted

Events can also be added using a data.frame passed via event_ds with the following columns:

column	description	type
`date`	(Required) Start date	`Date`
`date_end`	End date to specify range of a colored band	`Date`
`text`	(Required) Text to display	`character`
`color`	Color for line and text	`character`
`eventonly`	Only draw line for for start of event, no band	`logical`
`strokePattern`	One of ('solid','dashed' (Default) ,'dotted','dotdash')	`character`
`loc`	one of ('top','bottom' (Default))	`character`
`series`	Name of series to apply event to, if needed	`character`
`category`	Optional string used for exceptions. See notes below.	`character`

Many times, events depend on outside data or statistical analysis on the original data. The event_ds to be passed in can come from event helpers in fg_cut_to_events(), fg_addbreakouts(), fg_findTurningPoints(), or fg_ratingsEvents(). Event columns are processed as is, unless category=="series_color" which will replace color with that of its series.

Annotiations include any notes or highlights added to the graph on the 'y' axis or on an individual series. In addition to those passed via the annotations parameter, annotations can be added using a data.frame with the following columns:

column	description	type
`date`	(Required) Start date	`Date`
`date_end`	End date to specify range of a colored band	`Date`
`text`	(Required) Text to display	`character`
`color`	Color for line and text	`character`
`eventonly`	Only draw line for for start of event, no band	`logical`

Other notes:

Using stepcols most often happens with lower frequency data, so an nafill is automatically performed.
Dates in event types pt and dt are adjusted to next day in series if they do not already exist.

Value

Dygraph dygraphs plotting input data, with annotations and other customizations.
