How to change the tick frequency on a timeseries x axis

Hello can u please let me know how can I change the xticks on a time series. The ticks are displayed every 3 months, while I need one month ticks. The time series dates are real data and can not evenly distribute them. Thank you for your reply. Best, Nick

You will need to set the axes XTick property yourself.

Thank you for your timely response. Any idea of how that can be done?

[Walter Roberson]

If the X axis is in serial date number, then a month is approximately 30 days, so at first pass you could use

set(gca, 'XTick', (first_datenum : 30 : last_datenum) );

There are more exact methods, of course.
