# Import stock prices
stocks <- tq_get(c("TSLA", "AMZN"),
                 get = "stock.prices",
                 from = "2016-01-01",
                 to = "2017-01-01")

Static plots:

g <- ggplot(data = stocks) + 
  geom_point(mapping = aes(x = volume, y = adjusted, color = symbol))

g
Revenue by Category

Revenue by Category

Interactive plots:

ggplotly(g)
