You can ignore the warning. You can calculate the values yourself and
check that the results are the same:
df = as.data.frame(bi.backtest.nig)
q = quantile(bi.backtest.nig,0.01)
q10 =
qdist("nig",0.01,mu=0,sigma=df[10,"Sigma"],skew=df[10,"Skew"],shape=df[10,"Shape"])
as.numeric(q[10])==q10
> TRUE
q5 =
qdist("nig",0.01,mu=0,sigma=df[5,"Sigma"],skew=df[5,"Skew"],shape=df[5,"Shape"])
as.numeric(q[5])==q5
> TRUE
The warning will be fixed in the development version (...soon).

Hi all,
there is one issue I can´t go one myself. I try to fit a nig-distribution in
a rolling window method to a time-series with the fantastic rugarch package.
I use the option 'calculate.VaR' for several other distributions and it
works fine, but if I switch to the nig-distribution, I recieve the following
warning:
In ans[i] = mu[i] + sigma[i] * .qsnigC(p, rho = skew[i], ... :number of
items to replace is not a multiple of replacement length
I tried to turn off the option and calculate the quantile on my own. I think
there is an misstake with the number of the parameters, but what can I
change to get over?
For code, see below
Best regards
library(quantmod)
library(rugarch)
library(PerformanceAnalytics)
bi <- getSymbols('^GDAXI', from = "2004-01-01", to = "2015-08-01")
