xts error - order.by requires an appropriate time-based object
- by Samo
I can not resolve why error in simple creation of xts object
xts(rep(0, NROW(TICK.NYSE)), order.by = index(TICK.NYSE))
Error in xts(rep(0, NROW(TICK.NYSE)), order.by = index(TICK.NYSE)) :
order.by requires an appropriate time-based object
appeared while this was working perfectly 14 days ago when I last used the same code (since then the only difference is that TICK.NYSE grow in length since data was added since then).
More details below:
> Sys.getenv("TZ")
[1] "EST"
> tail(xts(rep(0, NROW(TICK.NYSE)), order.by = index(TICK.NYSE)))
Error in xts(rep(0, NROW(TICK.NYSE)), order.by = index(TICK.NYSE)) :
order.by requires an appropriate time-based object
> class(index(TICK.NYSE["T09:30/T09:31"]))
[1] "POSIXct"
> tail(xts(rep(0, NROW(tail(TICK.NYSE))), order.by = index(tail(TICK.NYSE))))
Error in xts(rep(0, NROW(tail(TICK.NYSE))), order.by = index(tail(TICK.NYSE))) :
order.by requires an appropriate time-based object
