Yes, that worked great!

Thank you so much for all your assistance!


Best regards,

Andreas, you can just extract the numeric values from the output :
Either coredata() or as.numeric().

rugarch was designed to work with xts as it was the author’s opinion at the time that it was the gold standard for working with timeseries data in the context of GARCH models and greatly simplified design decisions.

Regards,

Alexios

I am asking because I also used fgarch package and in the output I received just the standardized residuals without the dates, so after that I just use the ecdf and I convert them.
