Hi , I extract 2 PC and know I want to plot direction of PCs but I don't know how.
I attached data and code
clc;
clear;
data=importdata('data.txt');
n_data=zscore(data);
[coeff,scores,latent] = pca(n_data,'Algorithm','eig');
p=scatter(scores(:,1),scores(:,2),'filled')
xlabel('Principal Component 1');
ylabel('Principal Component 2');

I am confused by what you mean by "direction of PCs".
Because you are plotting the scores variable, you are plotting in principal component space (not the original coordinate space). I would say that the x- and y- axes are the "direction of the PCs" in this plot. (The other 7 PCs are orthogonal to these.)
If this does not make sense, or does not capture what you mean, maybe you could explain some more. What are you trying to illustrate?

The biplot illustrates what the original axes look like in (two or three dimensions of) PC space.
I think that making a biplot of the inverse of coeff would illustrate what the PC vectors look like in the original space. (I am not certain of this last statement. I'd need to think about it more, and experiment a bit.)
