如何在 matplotlib 中用日期时间绘制 ohlc 烛台？

我需要每 5 分钟绘制一次交易数据（一根蜡烛）

这是我到目前为止所拥有的：

from matplotlib.finance import candlestick2_ohlc
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
candlestick2_ohlc(ax,quotes['open'],quotes['high'],quotes['low'],quotes['close'],width=0.6)

它看起来像这样：

我需要改进它：

1. 蓝色标记表明xticks显示与int，我希望他们在datetime format.

2. 红色标记显示状态栏中的 x 值。我希望它在datetime格式也。

这里是quotes演示数据：

这是一些有效的代码。

首先，我们使用以下命令将时间戳转换为日期时间对象datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp https://docs.python.org/2/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp.

然后，我们使用ticker.MaxNLocator http://matplotlib.org/api/ticker_api.html#matplotlib.ticker.MaxNLocator.

然后我创建了一个函数来提供ticker.FuncFormatter使用datetime对象作为刻度标签，并使用刻度的整数值来索引xdate我们之前创建的列表。

The try... except子句在那里，以防万一在您的最终时间戳之外有一个刻度quotes数组，在这种情况下该函数将失败。

我还添加了autofmt_xdate()旋转刻度线，以及tight_layout()为他们腾出空间

from matplotlib.finance import candlestick2_ohlc
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.ticker as ticker
import datetime as datetime
import numpy as np

quotes = np.array(...)

fig, ax = plt.subplots()
candlestick2_ohlc(ax,quotes['open'],quotes['high'],quotes['low'],quotes['close'],width=0.6)

xdate = [datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(i) for i in quotes['time']]

ax.xaxis.set_major_locator(ticker.MaxNLocator(6))

def mydate(x,pos):
    try:
        return xdate[int(x)]
    except IndexError:
        return ''

ax.xaxis.set_major_formatter(ticker.FuncFormatter(mydate))

fig.autofmt_xdate()
fig.tight_layout()

plt.show()
