How to use Plot.xts with Block and Events lines with xtsExtra package?

Question

I am trying to plot time series graph with blocks as others did. See the link for more detail of the example: http://www.r-bloggers.com/plot-xts-is-wonderful/.

Answer 1

We've moved plot.xts into the main xts package.

Please do

 install.packages("xts", repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org")

or

 install_github('joshuaulrich/xts')

and then look at ?plot.xts and ?addEventLines for examples.
