Ethereum Plotting Problem: Can’t Plot Multiple Lines in a Single Chart
We’ve come across a common issue with Ethereum data, where plotting multiple lines in a single chart seems to get stuck on a single line. This issue can be frustrating and make it difficult to analyze the data.
Problem
In Ethereum, we typically plot multiple lines on a single chart using libraries like Plotly or Matplotlib. However, when we try to do this, we often find that only one line is plotted, even though we have multiple time series values for different assets or indicators.
Screenshot of the issue
For a better understanding of the issue, I’ve attached a screenshot showing the issue:
+------------------------------------+
| Ethereum |
+------------------------------------+
| Closing Value (USD) |
+------------------------------------+
| Line 1 |
| Closing Value (USD) |
+-------------------------------------+
| Line 2 |
| Closing Value (USD) |
+-------------------------------------+
+-------------------------------------+
| Ethereum |
+-------------------------------------+
| Open Price (ETH/USD) |
+-------------------------------------+
| Closing Price (ETH/USD) |
+-------------------------------------+
| Line 1 |
| Open Price (ETH/USD) |
+-------------------------------------+
+------------------------------------+
| Ethereum |
+-------------------------------------+
| Volume (ETH) |
+-------------------------------------+
| Line 2 |
| Volume (ETH) |
+-------------------------------------+
+------------------------------------+
| Market Data |
+-----------------------------------------+
As you can see, there are two lines drawn on the chart: one for the closing value and one for the opening price. However, there is no third line to draw.
Possible Causes
This issue can be caused by several factors:
- Insufficient Data: If we only have a limited number of samples or time steps, it may not be enough to create multiple lines on the chart.
- Incorrect Rendering Settings: Some libraries may not support rendering multiple lines on the same image or may require additional configuration options.
- Data Format Issues: The data format may not be compatible with the rendering library’s requirements.
Solution
To resolve this issue, we can try the following workaround:
- Use a different plotting library: We can switch to a library like Seaborn or Plotly that supports multiple lines in a single chart.
- Increase the number of data points: If possible, we can increase the number of samples or time steps to provide more data for the chart.
- Check the rendering options: We should check our rendering settings and make sure they are correct to allow multiple lines to be placed on the same image.
Conclusion
Plotting multiple lines in a single chart with Ethereum data is not supported by default. However, we can resolve this issue by using a different library or by adjusting our rendering settings. If you have similar issues, feel free to share your code or data for further analysis!
