So I'm looking for a way to make one of the lines on my chart NOT smooth and the other smooth. There is a master option to make every line on the chart smooth but not a particular line that I know of.
Here is my chart of what it looks like
PS. Im using JQ Plots http://www.jqplot.com/index.php
Here is my JS code.
//STOCK HIGH VS LOW
var line1 = [['2017-11-27',175.0800],['2017-11-28',174.8700],['2017-11-29',172.9200],['2017-11-30',172.1400],['2017-12-01',171.6700],['2017-12-04',172.6200],['2017-12-05',171.5200],['2017-12-06',170.2047],['2017-12-07',170.4400],['2017-12-08',171.0000],['2017-12-11',172.8900],['2017-12-12',172.3900],['2017-12-13',173.5400],['2017-12-14',173.1300],['2017-12-15',174.1700],['2017-12-18',177.2000],['2017-12-19',175.3900],['2017-12-20',175.4200],['2017-12-21',176.0200],['2017-12-22',175.4240],['2017-12-26',171.4700],['2017-12-27',170.7800],['2017-12-28',171.8500],['2017-12-29',170.5900],['2018-01-02',172.3000],['2018-01-03',174.5500],['2018-01-04',173.4700],['2018-01-05',175.3700],['2018-01-08',175.6100],['2018-01-09',175.0600],['2018-01-10',174.3000],['2018-01-11',175.4900],['2018-01-12',177.3600],['2018-01-16',179.3900],['2018-01-17',179.2500],['2018-01-18',180.1000],['2018-01-19',179.5800],['2018-01-22',177.7800],['2018-01-23',179.4400],['2018-01-24',177.3000],['2018-01-25',174.9500],['2018-01-26',172.0000],['2018-01-29',170.1600],['2018-01-30',167.3700],['2018-01-31',168.4417],['2018-02-01',168.6200],['2018-02-02',166.8000],['2018-02-05',163.8800],['2018-02-06',163.7200],['2018-02-07',163.4000],['2018-02-08',161.0000],['2018-02-09',157.8900]];

}],

{ label: 'Low' }
],
});
If it cant be done in JQ Plots, do you guys know of any other charts that can do this.
Pretty much Im looking for a chart to look like this in the end.
Replying kinda late but..
Yes you can do it in jqplot as well.
Instead of using a seriesDefaults option, go directly and add it in each series you want:
series: [
{
// custom line
lineWidth:2,
markerOptions: { style:'diamond' }
},
{
// here is your smooth line
rendererOptions: {
smooth: true,
},
markerOptions: { style:"circle" }
}
]
Disclaimer: I read it on the internet . . . but apparently d3 can do this (https://gist.github.com/thiyagu-p/3925981). Also, if you Google 'd3 moving average and volume' you get some interesting results. YMMV.
I don't know about jqPlot but you could certainly do this with RGraph:
https://www.rgraph.net/demos/svg-line-trading.html
And if you wanted the gray decorative bar at the back you could use another Bar chart to get this effect before drawing the Line charts and give it some dummy data of:
[1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1]
I am using Flot to draw some bar charts. How do I configure the zoom so that when a user zooms out, the chart will look like the one at the top and not like the one at the bottom? In other words, I don't want the user to continue zooming out when all of the data for the chart is shown. I also want to restrict the chart from displaying anything below 0 on the X axis. See my code and pictures of the charts below:
<#macro barChart2 var formatFunction ticks="" optionLegend="{ show: false }">
var options = {
yaxis: {
tickFormatter: ${formatFunction}
},
series: {
stack: 0,
bars: {
show: true,
barWidth: 0.9,
align: "center"
}
},
grid : {
hoverable: true
},
xaxis: {
<#if "${ticks}" != "">
ticks: ${ticks}
</#if>
mode: "time",
timeformat: "%b %d, %H:%M %P"
},
pan : {
interactive: true
},
legend: ${optionLegend}
};
var plot${var} = $.plot($("#chart${var}"), data, options);
$("#zoomIn${var}").click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
plot${var}.zoom();
});
$("#zoomOut${var}").click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
plot${var}.zoomOut();
});
</#macro>
I suggest you take a look at the zoomRange and panRange parameters that you can set with the navigation plugin. You specify those for the axes like:
xaxis: { zoomRange: [0.1, 10], panRange: [-10, 10] },
yaxis: { zoomRange: [0.1, 10], panRange: [-10, 10] }
where zoomRange sets the limit for zooming. In this case, the difference between the min and max will never go below 0.1, and it will never exceed 10. panRange tells the content to stay in a certain range, so in this case, neither axis will pan below -10 or above 10.
I'm not sure how you do this with time series data, but try with javascript timestamps to begin with.
