I installed R package quantstrat and its depencies as in the following code, as answered in this link:
install.packages("devtools")
require(devtools)
install_github("braverock/FinancialInstrument")
install_github("joshuaulrich/xts")
install_github("braverock/blotter")
install_github("braverock/quantstrat")
install_github("braverock/PerformanceAnalytics")
When installing quantstrat package, I got the following output:
Note: no visible binding for '<<-' assignment to '.strategy'
Note: no visible binding for '<<-' assignment to 'hold'
I do not know actually what it means. However, it seems I am not being able to make any transactions.
if I run demo('bbands', ask=FALSE)
I get the following output:
Error in chart.Posn(Portfolio = "bbands", Symbol = stock.str) :
no transactions/positions to chart

As well answered by @FXQuantTrader, I could ignore the notes. It was a problem with version 0.14.5 where the notes are not relevant. It is fixed in version 0.14.6 and works perfectly now.
