Daily Value at Risk ($m)<br />
Each point on the graph represents 1 day’s trading profit or loss. This result is placed on the graph relative to the<br />
associated VaR utilisation. The downward sloping line represents the point where a loss is equal to VaR utilisation.<br />
Any point below this line represents a back-test exception (i.e. where the loss is greater than the VaR).<br />
