Issues with using R's bizdays package to create weekdays calendar for daily stock prices data












0















I have data on daily stock prices from Brazil span over the period 2000-01-03/2018-11-15, the data contain working days only, therefore, I'm using bizdays package to create calendar counting working days and skips weekends, bizdays requires predefined calendar to adjust dates to working days. To this end, we can use RQunatLib or Rmetrics to load the calendar we want. Once we get the calendar of interest, we can adjust dates to working days only with following code:



dates <- bizdays(from='2000-01-03', to='2018-11-15', cal)


In my case which is Brazil, to get the calendar I used the following codes:



install.packages("bizdays")
require(bizdays)
install.packages("RQuantLib")
require(RQuantLib)
load_quantlib_calendars('Brazil', from='2000-01-03', to='2018-11-15')


The problem here is that function "load_quantlib_calendars" is not recognized



Error in load_quantlib_calendars("Brazil", from = "2000-01-03", to = "2018-11-15") :
could not find function "load_quantlib_calendars"


Why is the function not working?

  • lubridate wday function is very easier than this have a look lubridate::wday(date, label = TRUE) . Also your spelling is wrong for bizdays while loading the library. require(bizdays)

  • @Hunaidkhan zoo is also very useful in this case and fairly easy to use, I created date index "X" using the code X <- seq( as.Date("2000/1/03"), as.Date("2018/11/15"),"days"), then excluded the weekend days from the date index "X" by doing this weekdays.X <- X[ ! weekdays(X) %in% c("Saturday", "Sunday")]. I got new date index without weekends "weekdays.X". lastly I combined the new date index with my stock price time series "SPrices1": XPrices = zoo(x=SPrices1, order.by=weekdays.X)

This should do the work for you



days <- as.data.frame(as.Date(seq(as.Date("2000-01-03"), as.Date("2018-11-15"), by="days")))
colnames(days)<- c("Date")

days$condition <- lubridate::wday(days$Date, label = TRUE)


If you want to remove weekend from the data use the below code



days_new <- mutate(days, Date = wday(Date, label = T)) %>%
filter(Date != "Sat", Date != "Sun")
