## wrapper for barchart of returns

### Description

A wrapper to create a chart of periodic returns in a bar chart. This is a difficult enough graph to read that it doesn't get much use. Still, it is useful for viewing a single set of data.

### Usage

        chart.Bar(R, legend.loc = NULL, colorset = (1:12), ...)

### Arguments

`R` | a vector, matrix, data frame, timeSeries or zoo object of asset returns
`legend.loc` | places a legend into one of nine locations on the chart: bottomright, bottom, bottomleft, left, topleft, top, topright, right, or center
`colorset` | color palette to use, set by default to rational choices
`...` | any other passthru parameters, see `plot`

### Details

This is really a wrapper for chart.TimeSeries, so several other attributes can also be passed.

### Value

Creates a plot of time on the x-axis and vertical lines for each period to indicate value on the y-axis.
