"Rangebreaks" to exclude weekends not working

📊 Plotly Python

Hi. I’m plotting a stock chart using a dataframe with 1400 rows of intraday data. The target chart is Close price on the Y axis and Date/Time on the X axis. The problem is that rangebreaks=[dict(bounds=["sat", "mon"])]* does NOT exclude weekends.

I think this may be that I’m using an ordinal value for the Date/Time. However, If I don’t use an ordinal value, then the chart produces nothing. Below is the code and resulting chart.

Any ideas on a fix?

Thanks,

Dan.

p.s. My system is a new MacBook Pro M1 with 32GB of memory.

Code:

fig2 = px.scatter(df_plot, x='Datetime_Ordinal', y='Close', title='Symbol Name', trendline='ols', trendline_color_override='darkblue')
        fig2.update_xaxes(
            rangebreaks=[dict(bounds=["sat", "mon"])]
        )
        fig2.show()

Chart:
