Re: Maximum lag length for ADF test

Schwert’s (1989) principle, that is kmax=12(n/100)^(0.25)

where n is the sample size

Re: Granger Causality Result in Eviews

Hi,

Yes correct. We fail to reject the null hypothesis whenever the p-value is greater than the 0.05 (given that this is the selected level of significance).

Re: Granger Causality Result in Eviews

Hello,

Read carefully the manual and you will find the answer! Try to think if the critical values are of interest whenever the p-values are reported. The p-value does the job.

Re: Johansen Cointegration in Eviews

Hi, As you have realized there is no unique way to select the optimal lag length, therefore is quite easy to support your selection. Whenever multiple lag lengths appear two strategies can be followed: 1) Consider all the available criteria and let democracy to do the job 2) Choose one criterion (I ...

Re: Johansen Cointegration in Eviews

Hi, Initially run the VAR model of your interest without caring for the optimal lag structure. From the VAR window now select: view/ lag structure / Lag length criteria. A new window appears where the Lag specification is desired. Specify the maximum lag length (depending on the frequency of your da...

Re: How to compute p-value with Empirical Distribution

Hi,

I think the solution to your problem is quite easy. Simply remember the definition of the p-value and that’s it. The following paper will help you since the authors perform a similar task. (page 619)

Re: garch-bekk

Hi, Correctly you have adjusted the sample, dropping just two observations and not two whole months. You do not need to change the first sample. The new message is associated to the LR statistic for selecting between univariate versus bivariate specifications. It receives a negative value something ...

Re: garch-bekk

Hi,

Simply re-size your estimation sample. Find within the code

sample s1 07/01/2002 07/04/2008
and replace it by:
sample s1 09/01/2002 07/04/2008


I think now it works!

Re: how to deal with dummy variable in eviews

Hello,

You should import your dummy variable as any other quantitative variable and then you may proceed to the estimation of the equation without any concern. (Of course if the dummy variable is the dependent one then binary models are appropriate)

Re: Granger Causality Test - Help needed

Hi,

The above Granger causality test is linear. E-views do not perform a non-linear Causality tests. I am afraid that you need to construct your own code.
