Forecast combination

[Katjes]

Started using the new options of EVIEWS 9, I very happy that forecast combination procedure are ready to use for indidual forecasts or a group of forecasts (ind_f1_w_all)
Either manually or by command, e.g.

Code: Select all

data_real.fcastavg(wgt=mean,name=f1_av) ind_f1_w_all
data_real.fcastavg(wgt=mean,name=f2_av) ind_f2_w_all 

But it seems not working for loops?

Code: Select all

for !m=1 to 12
data_real.fcastavg(wgt=mean,name=f{!m}_av) ind_f{!m}_w_all
next

But it seems not working for loops? Solutions are welcome!

Hard to say what the solution is without knowing what the problem is.
