plot.HoltWinters: Plot function for HoltWinters objects

Description

Produces a chart of the original time series along with the fitted values. Optionally, predicted values (and their confidence bounds) can also be plotted.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'HoltWinters':
plot(x, predicted.values = NA, intervals = TRUE,
        separator = TRUE, col = 1, col.predicted = 2,
        col.intervals = 4, col.separator = 1, lty = 1,
        lty.predicted = 1, lty.intervals = 1, lty.separator = 3,
        ylab = "Observed / Fitted",
        main = "Holt-Winters filtering",
        ylim = NULL, \dots)

Arguments

x
Object of class "HoltWinters"
predicted.values
Predicted values as returned by predict.HoltWinters
intervals
If TRUE, the prediction intervals are plotted (default).
separator
If TRUE, a separating line between fitted and predicted values is plotted (default).
col, lty
Color/line type of original data (default: black solid).
col.predicted, lty.predicted
Color/line type of fitted and predicted values (default: red solid).
col.intervals, lty.intervals
Color/line type of prediction intervals (default: blue solid).
col.separator, lty.separator
Color/line type of observed/predicted values separator (default: black dashed).
ylab
Label of the y-axis.
main
Main title.
ylim
Limits of the y-axis. If NULL, the range is chosen such that the plot contains the original series, the fitted values, and the predicted values if any.
...
Other graphics parameters.
