rugarch package: VaRTest()
Dear all,
I want to backtest my Value at Risk output using the VaRTest() function in the rugarch package. I do not understand if the numeric vector of VaR which needs to be calculated is in negative or positive terms. Usually VaR is expressed in positive terms.
Do I have to use positive values for VaR in the VaRTest() formula?
Thanks for your help.
