  • How to generate series of plots programmatically?

    Hi, all!

    How to generate series of plots with exactly the same numbers of finance bars on the
    each plot?

    What I want interactively can be achievid with something like this:

    ....
    set xrange[0:100]
    replot
    set xrange[100:200]
    replot
    set xrange[200:300]
    replot
    set xrange[300:400]
    replot
    set xrange[400:500]

    etc. to the end of datafile

    Here is the gnuplot script I'm working on:

    #!/usr/local/bin/gnuplot
    set term pngcairo enhanced font ",8" size 1600,900
    set output "main.png"
    set boxwidth 0.5 relative
    set grid
    set style line 1 lc rgb '#3B444B' lt 1 #border
    set border linestyle 1
    set errorbars 2.6
    set border 3
    set tics nomirror
    set xtics 2
    set xtics rotate by -90
    set ytics 500
    set xrange [30:60]
    plot "< paste -d, main.db fast_sma long_sma signal.db" u 0:2:3:4:5 w finance lc rgb '#3B444B' lw 1.4, \
    "" u 0:13 w l lc rgb '#FF7F50' lw 1.8, \
    "" u 0:14 w l lw 1.8, \
    "" u 15:16 w p lt 3 lc rgb 'red'

    Thank you!

    Several possibilities, check "help do", and "help plot for".

    The range iteration is a bit tricky with "plot for" i think, the "do
    for [] {}" loop has the disadvantage that you need to have a plot
    already before iterating through you data with "replot". Try
    generating an empty plot beforehand, e.g. via

    plot 0 lc rgb "white" notitle

    if necessary.
