How to loop different y-labels in different plots?

I want to display 4 graphs of Impulse Response Functions (IRFs) with their confidence intervals. I would like the labels to appear in bold on the y-axis. I tried this code but it doesn't display the y-axis as plotdisplay says. Besides, when I run the code, the order of the plots doesn't reflect the order of the variables and one (the last one) isn't displayed.

plotdisplay = {'Fiscal Policy Accommodation', 'HICP', 'Real GDP', 'Policy Indicator'}
 
 for j = 1:4
 plot(VAR.irs(:,j),'LineWidth',2,'Color', [0 0 0.5]);
            hold on
            plot(VARbs.irsH(:,j),'LineWidth',1,'Color', [0 0 0.5],'LineStyle','--');
            hold on
            plot(VARbs.irsL(:,j),'LineWidth',1,'Color', [0 0 0.5],'LineStyle','--');
            subplot(size(VAR.irs, 2), 1, j);
            xlabel('months')
            ylabel(plotdisplay(j), 'bold')
 end

What is wrong in this code?

Thanks

Change to

ylabel(plotdisplay(j), 'FontWeight', 'bold')

Also move the subplot statement above

for j = 1:4
    subplot(size(VAR.irs, 2), 1, j);
    plot(VAR.irs(:,j),'LineWidth',2,'Color', [0 0 0.5]);
    hold on
    % remaining code.
end

Great help. Can I ask you one more question? How do you change in MATLAB the size of the 4 graphs? To shrink the length and increase height for example in the final display?

[Ameer Hamza]

You can add the following line to change the dimensions of current figure

f = gcf;
f.Position(3) = f.Position(3) + 300; % increase width a little, adjust the value of 300
f.Position(4) = f.Position(4) - 100; % decrease height a little, adjust the value of 100

impressive! Thanks a lot!
