In order to analyze simulated data, @risk provides a histogram with handle bars, so that we can move these handles to see what proportion of data are on each side. For example,

.

I am trying to create similar graph for my empirical data, but I have no idea how to do it. Any help starting with the following code would be much appreciated.

   mydata = RandomVariate[TriangularDistribution[{100, 400}, 200], 5000];

   Histogram[mydata, Automatic, "Probability"]

   mydist = EmpiricalDistribution[mydata];

A starting point:

BlockRandom[SeedRandom[42]; (* for reproducibility *)

            mydata = RandomVariate[TriangularDistribution[{100, 400}, 200], 5000]];



DynamicModule[{hd, hist, xmin, xmax, yr},

              Manipulate[Show[hist, 

                              Plot[PDF[hd, x], {x, h[[1, 1]], h[[2, 1]]},

                                   Exclusions -> None, Filling -> {1 -> Axis},

                                   FillingStyle -> Opacity[0.8, Pink],

                                   PlotPoints -> 95, PlotRange -> yr, 

                                   PlotStyle -> Directive[AbsoluteThickness[2], Pink]],

                              Axes -> None, Frame -> True,

                              GridLines -> {{h[[1, 1]], h[[2, 1]]}, None}, 

                              Method -> {"GridLinesInFront" -> True},

                         Initialization :> (hd = HistogramDistribution[mydata];

                                            {xmin, xmax} = First[hd["Domain"]]; 

                                            hist = Histogram[mydata, Automatic, "PDF", 

                                            ChartBaseStyle ->

     }
