Plotting CLA() results including Efficient Frontier

Description

A partly experimental plot() method for CLA() objects.

It draws the efficient frontier in the \mu_w,\sigma_w aka (mean, std.dev.) plane.

Currently, this is quite rudimentary.
Future improvements would allow - to add the/some single asset points, - to correctly (‘hyperbolically’) interpolate between turning points - add text about the number of (unique) critical points - add option add = FALSE which when TRUE would use lines instead plot.

Usage


## S3 method for class 'CLA'
plot(x, type = "o", main = "Efficient Frontier",
     xlab = expression(sigma(w)),
     ylab = expression(mu(w)),
     col = adjustcolor("blue", alpha.f = 0.5),
     pch = 16, ...)

Arguments

x

a named list as resulting from CLA().

type

the lines/points types used for the efficient frontier. This will become more sophisticated, i.e., may change non-compatibly!!

main

main title.

xlab, ylab

x- and y- axis labels, passed to plot.default.

col, pch

color and point type, passed to plot.default, but with differing defaults in this method.

...

potentially further arguments passed to plot, i.e., plot.default.
