Plots the VaR of a portfolio against confidence level assuming extreme losses are Frechet distributed, for specified range of confidence level and a given holding period.
1 | FrechetVaRPlot2DCl(mu, sigma, tail.index, n, cl, hp)
|
mu |
Location parameter for daily L/P |
sigma |
Scale parameter for daily L/P |
tail.index |
Tail index |
n |
Block size from which maxima are drawn |
cl |
Confidence level and should be a vector |
hp |
Holding period and should be a scalar |
Note that the long-right-hand tail is fitted to losses, not profits.
