I am using performance analytics and Quantmod packages. The data is daily stock returns, I am calculating VaR (Port.returns, p=0.95, weights = weights, portfolio_method = "Component", method="modified"). This gives me the Cornish Fisher VaR - daily risk. Is there a way still using daily prices a

This seems like an odd analysis to me, but I don't have time to look closer at it. It certainly doesn't look simple to me... I hope you have some good theoretical guidance in tackling this (which this mailing list is not). One obvious thing is that z1 only depends on i, so you should only have

What have you tried so far? Have you installed the spatstat package and read the manual page for pp3 objects? The website spatstat.org has additional support including a quick reference guide. There are always multiple ways to do something in R, but without more details it is hard to be specific

ggplot automatically chooses continuous or discrete scales depending on the type of column you give it... so don't give it a numeric column (integers are a subset of numeric)... give it a character (lazy) or factor (better for controlling what the output looks like) value for your colour specifi
