Ethereum Plotting Issue: Unable to Plot Multiple Lines in a Single Graph
I’ve encountered a common issue with Ethereum data, where plotting multiple lines in a single graph appears to be stuck on one line. This problem can be frustrating and make it difficult to analyze the data.
The Problem
In Ethereum, we typically plot multiple lines on a single graph using libraries like Plotly or Matplotlib. However, when trying to do this, we often find that only one line is plotted, even if we have multiple time series values for different assets or indicators.
Screenshot of the Issue
To better understand the problem, I’ve included a screenshot showing the issue:
+---------------------------------------+
| Ethereum |
+---------------------------------------+
| Close Value (USD) |
+---------------------------------------+
| Line 1 |
| Close Value (USD) |
+---------------------------------------+
| Line 2 |
| Close Value (USD) |
+---------------------------------------+
+---------------------------------------+
| Ethereum |
+---------------------------------------+
| Open Price (ETH/USD) |
+---------------------------------------+
| Close 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 plotted on the graph: one for Close Value and one for Open Price. However, there is no third line to plot.
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 graph.
- Incorrect plotting settings: Some libraries may not support plotting multiple lines in the same figure or may require additional configuration options.
- Data format issues
: The format of the data may not be compatible with the plotting library’s requirements.
Workaround
To fix 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 graph.
- Increase the number of data points: If possible, we can increase the number of samples or time steps to provide more data for the plot.
- Check plotting options: We should review our plotting settings and make sure they are correct to accommodate multiple lines on the same figure.
Conclusion
Plotting multiple lines in a single graph with Ethereum data is not supported by default. However, we can work around this issue by using a different library or adjusting our plotting settings. If you’re experiencing similar issues, feel free to share your code or data for further analysis!
