r - Logistic Regression on factor: Error in eval(family$initialize) : y values must be 0 <= y <= 1

Not able to fix the below error for the below logistic regression

training=(IBM$Serial<625)
data=IBM[!training,]
dim(data)
stock.direction <- data$Direction
training_model=glm(stock.direction~data$lag2,data=data,family=binomial)
###Error### ----  Error in eval(family$initialize) : y values must be 0 <= y <= 1

Few rows from the data i am using

The reason it's asking for y values between 0 and 1 is because the categorical features in your data such as 'direction' are of type 'character'. You need to convert them to type 'factor' with as.factor(data$Direction). So: glm(Direction ~ lag2, data=...) Don't need to declare stock.direction.

You can check the class of variables by using the command class(variable), and if they're character, you can convert to factor and create a new column in the same data frame. It should work then.
