plotting two DataFrame columns with different colors in python

Question

I have a DataFrame in pandas and I'm plotting two columns out in a line graph using matplotlib. However, I can't figure out how to change the individual color of each line. I can only change both or none. Using .plot() I can only change both eg. c='red' but I want different colors for each line. Screenshot of code and graph

Just add color option: .plot(figsize=(16,6), color=['green', 'brown']). — swatchai

To plot 2 columns of dataframe with colors 'green' and 'brown', use the following code:

df[['Close 30 Day MA', 'Close']].plot(figsize(16,6), color=['green', 'brown'])

Hope it helps.
