Hi all,
After chossing starting values I run a non-linear OLS and get convergence after 0 iterations.
Should I be worried about that?
My estimates seem to be very sensitive to starting values... 0 iterations mean that my starting values are those who maximize the likelihood, which seems to be very tricky, no?
Thank you

Re: Convergence achieved after 0 iterations
Hello,
That is suspicious. Either your starting values lucked upon a likelihood maximum, or there's an optimization failure that's not being reported correctly. Could you provide a workfile with your data and estimation?
