GARCH distribution selection

hi in my models, if i use GED for the distribution the results come back fine. however in some cases i cant remove the autocorrelation or ARCH effects. they remove however if i change to student t or normal distribution. however, are the results in valid if for one index or subperiod it is normally ...

AR and lagged dependent variables

hi

i want to test the day of the week effect using both OLS and GARCH

for the OLS part, i see in some papers that they simply use a lagged dependent variable such as return(-5) for 5 week days. other papers use ar(1) , however does using ar(1) mean the model is no longer OLS?
