Adding threshold to histogram
Posted: Wed Jan 12, 2011 6:06 pm
Hello:
I have created a histogram of some data and calculated the 99% VaR of the observations. I would like to do two things:
1.- Add a threshold to the histogram, i.e. add like a line at the 99% VaR level to the histogram. Or something to symbolize the Var level in the histogram.
2.- Given my information series, count the amount of observations that are greater than my 99% VaR level.
Can these two things be done?
Many thanks in advance.
