The Gaussian and Historical methods are available in PerformanceAnalytics. You can easily use the Monte Carlo method of your choice to create a longer sample, and then use PerformanceAnalytics to calculate the VaR. There are also several bootstrap Monte Carlo methods in PerformanceAnalytics that have been contributed by Eric Zivot, but which we have not yet documented and exposed. Regards, - Brian -- Brian G.
