Plot multiple points in a for loop

Hello everyone, I have a for loop which is plotting different points over a certain amount of time. Right now the previous point is removed when the next one is added, but i would like to keep the old points.
n=100
for i=1:n+1
plot(i,i,'r.','MarkerSize',10);
axis([0 110 0 110])
f(i) = getframe(gcf);
end
Hopefully someone can help me with that.

end

Create an animatedline then addpoints to that animatedline each time you step through your for loop.

Thanks @steven. This was a good solution. Using 'animatedline' rather than 'plot' later allowed me to add different colors and legend entries for each line, which would have been difficult with 'plot'.

Wow that was easier than i thought, thank you!
