Two-way scatter plot title and axis title

[Upananda Pani]

Dear All,

I am trying to do a two way scatter plot from my analysis. The code which i am running in a do file is below:

sum abnormal_return, d
sum cumulative_abnormal_return, d
reg cumulative_abnormal_return if dif==0, robust

preserve
collapse (mean) abnormal_return, by(diff)
twoway scatter abnormal_return diff if diff>=-2 & diff<=2, xlab(-2(1)2) c(l) xline(-1) xline(1)
restore

My output graph is given below

My ideal graph should look like the following graph

Please suggest me how to change my code to get the x axis title and y axis title, the graph title on the top.

Looking forward to your suggestion

With sincere regards,
UP

Add the options:

xtitle("My X title") ytitle("My Y title") title("My title")

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for your reply. Why I am not getting the vertical line in middle?

With sincere regards,

your code in #1, shows the use of the "xline()" option but only has two so you get two lines; add another xline option where you want the middle line or even just use one xline option such as

xline(-1 0 1)
