Well, the best package for beginners is R-intro.pdf which is located probably 
in doc directory.

to convert character to date/time use
?strptime

Then you can set xlim parameters.

Why you wanted to set contrasts attribute to your factor? Or you used

Second hit from google was package candlesticks. Did you used it? What 
statistical analysis do you have on mind, there is 2000+ packages in R which 
are mainly amed to do statistical analysis. Without further details you 
probably do not get reasonable answer
