I would like to show the date in quarter format on the x axis. So far this is my code. However, not all the dates are shown in the graph. Can anyone help me with this issue?

Also I would like to make annotations with this code. But this does not work.
\draw [draw=red,>=stealth,shorten <=2pt,<-] (axis cs:2001Q1,180.1903218)-- +(0pt,35pt) node[font=\footnotesize, right] {9/11};
Thank you for your help in advance!
xticklabels from table={\datatable}{date}you also needxtick=data. That would create many ticks. Alternative - see my solution.
