#' Plots Frechet Value at Risk against Cl
#'
#' 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.
#'
#' Note that the long-right-hand tail is fitted to losses, not profits.
#'
#' @param mu Location parameter for daily L/P
#' @param sigma Scale parameter for daily L/P
#' @param tail.index Tail index
#' @param n Block size from which maxima are drawn
#' @param cl Confidence level and should be a vector
#' @param hp Holding period and should be a scalar
