highlow (Financial Time Series)

High-Low plot

Syntax

highlow(tsobj)
highlow(tsobj, color)
highlow(tsobj, color, dateform)
highlow(tsobj, color, dateform, ParameterName, ParameterValue, ...)
hhll = highlow(tsobj, color, dateform, ParameterName, 
ParameterValue, ...)

Arguments

tsobj
Financial time series object

color
(Optional) A three-element row vector representing RGB or a color identifier. (See plot in the MATLAB documentation.)

dateform
(Optional) Date string format used as the x-axis tick labels. (See datetick in the MATLAB documentation.)

`tsobj`	Financial time series object
`color`	(Optional) A three-element row vector representing RGB or a color identifier. (See `plot` in the MATLAB documentation.)
`dateform`	(Optional) Date string format used as the x-axis tick labels. (See `datetick` in the MATLAB documentation.)

Description

highlow(tsobj) generates a High-Low plot of the data in the financial time series object tsobj. tsobj must contain at least four data series representing the high, low, open, and closing prices. These series must have the names 'High', 'Low', 'Open', and 'Close' (case-insensitive).

highlow(tsobj, color) additionally specifies the color of the plot.

highlow(tsobj, color, dateform) additionally specifies the date string format used as the x-axis tick labels. See datestr in the Financial Toolbox User's Guide for a list of date string formats.

highlow(tsobj, color, dateform, ParameterName, ParameterValue,...) indicates the actual name(s) of the required data series if the data series do not have the default names. ParameterName can be:

'HighName': high prices series name
'LowName': low prices series name
'OpenName': open prices series name
'CloseName': closing prices series name

hhll = candle(tsobj, color, dateform, ParameterName, ParameterValue, ...) returns the handle to the line object that makes up the High-Low plot.
