MATLAB: How to move a plot to the left

move plot

When doing plotyy the right axis label is outside the image and there is some space left on the left of the left axis. I would like to move the whole plot left so that both axis labels fit correctly. Is it possible with Matlab code?

pos = get(gca, 'Position');
xoffset = -0.1;
pos(1) = pos(1) + xoffset;
set(gca, 'Position', pos)

By default the plot should have a set of axes with a labeled set of tick marks on the bottom and the left. The example below explains how this can be done for both the X and Y axes with different Tick labels on all four sides.

plot(1:10);
% First, store the handle to those axes.
% Next create a second set of axes, 
% position This on top of the first and make it transparent.
ax1=gca;
ax2 = axes('Position', get(ax1, 'Position'),'Color', 'none');
set(ax2, 'XAxisLocation', 'top','YAxisLocation','Right');
% set the same Limits and Ticks on ax2 as on ax1;
set(ax2, 'XLim', get(ax1, 'XLim'),'YLim', get(ax1, 'YLim'));
set(ax2, 'XTick', get(ax1, 'XTick'), 'YTick', get(ax1, 'YTick'));
OppTickLabels = {'a' 'b' 'c' 'd' 'e' 'f' 'g' 'h' 'i' 'j' 'k'}
% Set the x-tick and y-tick  labels for the second axes
set(ax2, 'XTickLabel', OppTickLabels,'YTickLabel',OppTickLabels);
