Re: st: Graphs display on a page

[Sergiy Radyakin <serjradyakin@gmail.com>]

Nick's suggestion #1 is probably something like this:

generate byte interesting=.......
twoway(scatter ave_price quote_date) if interesting, by(item_id)

where you replace .... with a selection condition for picking the 9
items you want to show (the biggest, the most recent, the ones used in
previous studies, the closest to headquarters, etc.) In the absence of
any rationale, this could simply be
generate byte interesting if item_id<=9

Best, Sergiy
