Hi all, I am looking for study resources for (financial) time series? Hopefully I could find video lectures then it will reduce the learning curve. Thanks a lot! [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, I'm so confused why I can't run Jarque-Bera test on my data. I have 9968 observation and I want to run Jarque-Bera test on them, but no matter how hard I am trying I can't get it work. please let me know what should I do. Best, Kiana [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear all, i have the question about the using of Jarque-Bera Test by using R. The question is that I do not have in my package "ts" this test and can not obtain any information in the help-file. Could you help my? Where could I download the package and which one, to use the Jarque-Bera Test? Thank You, Susan --------------------------------- - New people, new

Folks, I'm a bit puzzled by the fact that if I generate 100,000 standard normal variates using rnorm() and perform the Jarque-Bera on the resulting vector, I get p-values that vary drastically from run to run. Is this expected? Surely the p-val should be close to 1 for each test? Are 100,000 variates sufficient for this test? Or is it that rnorm() is not a robust random number generator?

Dear List: I am trying to understand how to use the jarque.bera.test() function of the "tseries" package. A numeric vector or time series seems to be the only argument required. What is the default significance level for rejecting the null of normality? Is there a way to specify different significance levels? platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch i386 os mingw32

Hi all I'm using the Box-Ljung test (from within R) to test if a time-series in independently distributed. 2 questions: 1) p-value returned by Box-Ljung: IF I want to test if the time-series is independant at say 0.05 sig-level (it means that prob of erroneously accepting that the time-series is independent is 0.05 right?) --> then do I consider time-series as "independant"

Hello R-Users, The following questions are not R-technical, but more of general statistical nature. 1. NORMALITY I built a normal linear regression model and now I want to check for the residual normality assumption. If I check the distribution graphically and look at the descriptive characteristics (skewness and kurtosis are below 1), I would confirm that the residuals are normally

Hello all, This is a request for help from somebody who has the Ox interfaces working in R. I am trying to get the Ox interfaces working for Arfima and Garch modelling. However, I am having several problems: 1. The link to download G at rch_v40 does not work. Does anybody have a copy to email to me please? 2. Various guides offer different instructions for installing Ox in the correct place

Ok I made Jarque-Bera test to the residuals (merv.reg$residual) library(tseries) jarque.bera.test(merv.reg$residual) X-squared = 1772.369, df = 2, p-value = < 2.2e-16 And I reject the null hypotesis (H0: merv.reg$residual are normally distributed) So I know that: 1 - merv.reg$residual aren't independently distributed (Box-Ljung test) 2 - merv.reg$residual aren't indentically

I'm analizing the Argentina stock market (merv) I download the data from yahoo library(tseries) Argentina <- get.hist.quote(instrument="^MERV","1996-10-08","2003-11-03", quote="Close") merv <- na.remove(log(Argentina)) I made the Augmented Dickey-Fuller test to analyse if merv have unit root: adf.test(merv,k=13) Dickey-Fuller = -1.4645,

Hi, I'm slowly working through Tsay's "Analysis of Financial Time Series" 3rd ed. ?I'm trying to replicate Table 2.1 on p.47, which gives PACF, AIC, and BIC for the monthly simple returns of the CRSP value-weighted index.

Hi all, I used the function jarque.test (in the moments package) on my data set and I obtained something like this: Jarque-Bera Normality Test data: x JB = 4.8381, p-value = 0.089 alternative hypothesis: greater or Jarque-Bera Normality Test data: x JB = 2.6018, p-value = 0.2723 alternative hypothesis: greater I cannot understand this. Please, someone can help me? thank you

I fit a simple linear model y = bX to a data set today, and that produced 24 residuals (I have 24 data points, one for each year from 1984-2007). I would like to test the time-independence of the residuals of my model, and I was recommended by my supervisor to use the Ljung-Box test. The Box.test function in R takes 4 arguments:  x a numeric vector or univariate time series. lag the statistic

Dear list members, I have 982 quotations of a given stock index and I want to run a Ljung-Box test on these data to test for autocorrelation. Later on I will estimate 8 coefficients. I do not know how many degrees of freedom should I assume in the formula for Ljung-Box test. Could anyone tell me please? Below the formula: Box.test(x, lag = ????, type = c("Ljung-Box"), fitdf = 0)

Hi All R Experts, I met with below mentioned statistics in paper "Stock Index Volatility Forecasting with High Frequency Data" by Eugenie Hol, Siem Jan Koopman http://ideas.repec.org/p/dgr/uvatin/20020068.html I would like to ask that what is "Box-Ljung portmantacau statistic based on N squared autocorrelation" ? Is it same as "Box-Ljung Statistics" of stats

two ARIMA models, both have several bars signicant in ACF and PACF plots of their residuals, but when run Ljung Box tests, both don't show any significant correlations... however, one model has p-value that is larger than the other model, based on the p-values, can I say the model with larger p-values should be better than the model with smaller p-values?

Hi all .. there is no doubt a simple answer to this, but it eludes me. In the first session below ( with jarque.bera.test) you will see that p.value prints with a name of X-squared . This is easily fixed by changing the source to assign a more appropriate name - no name is assigned in the source listing below (the original source code of jarque.bera.test() from tseries).. but what I

Hello, I am using the Ljung Box test in R to compute if the resiudals of my fitted model is random or not. I am not sure though what the results mean, I have looked at various sources on the internet and have come up with contrasting explanations (mainly because these info deal with different program languages, like SAS, SPSS, etc). I know that my residuals should appropriate white noise( is
