Both get.hist.quote, and its derivative priceIts, rely on download.file() to fetch financial data series from Yahoo! in .csv format. They allow for nice interactive demonstrations of what one can do with R. Unfortunately, both are currently broken as Yahoo! decided to add a somewhat useless html comment at the...

Hello, I have a few questions concerning the DCC-GARCH model and its programming in R. So here is what I want to do: I take quotes of two indices - S&P500 and DJ. And the aim is to estimate coefficients of the DCC-GARCH model for them. This is how I do it: library(tseries) p1 = get.hist.quote(instrument = "^gspc...

Dear all, I would like to ask how my data set contains problems. Here is what I have done. SandP = read.csv("Price.csv") library("forecast") auto.arima(SandP) and R shewed this to me Error in model.frame.default(formula = x ~ 1, drop.unused.levels = TRUE) : invalid type (list) for variable '...

Is there an elegant way to do operations (+/-/*/ / ) on zoo/xts objects when one serie is monthly (end of month) and the other daily (weekdays only) - typically a monthly economic indicator and a stock index price? Thanks, TDB -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/How-t...

Dear "R-listers" I've been trying to figure out how to annotate charts in ggplot (ie add text to line charts, highlighted boxes etc). By and large, I can get close to what i want with base graphics, but would ideally like to use ggplot whenever possible (additionally, i would like to add text labels...

Dear R experts---I am struggling with memory and speed issues. Advice would be appreciated. I have a long data set (of financial stock returns, with stock name and trading day). All three variables, stock return, id and day, are irregular. About 1.3GB in object.size (200MB on disk). now, I need to merge the...

I am trying to extract one particular piece of data(Float) from all the data returned by yahooKeystats, but thus far I'm having no luck. This is what I've got so far: > library(fImport) Loading required package: timeSeries Loading required package: timeDate > data<-yahooKeystats("IBM") trying URL 'http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ks?s=IBM' Content type 'text/htm...

Hello, I have a rather complex problem... I will have to explain everything in detail because I cannot solve it by myself...i just ran out of ideas. So here is what I want to do: I take quotes of two indices - S&P500 and DJ. And my first aim is to estimate coefficients of the DCC-GARCH model for them.

Hi all, I post it on both r-help and r-finance since I don't know where is most appropriate for this topic. Sorry if it bothers you. I did garch fitting on S&P500 monthly returns with garchFit from fSeries. I got same coefficients from all cond.dist except normal. I thought that is probabaly usual for t...

Hi all, I was trying garchFIt() of fSeries to fit volatility of monthly log returns of S&P500. I tried residuals of normal, student t, skew normal, skew t. But all innovations except normal got exaxtly same coefficients, even if I changed their parameters of skew and shape. Is this correct for the data or s...
