Unable to freeze RTADF output using command

Postby David Clark » Tue Jun 30, 2015 12:01 pm

I currently using the RTADF plug-in in order to pinpoint price bubbles. I use the following command (in the case for Wales) to attempt to estimate the model and freeze the results:

Code: Select all

freeze(walesoutput) wales.rtadf(trend,info=aic,lag=3,model=3,sim,rep=1000,Trw,graph,print)
The model runs and output is produced, however the output is not frozen in the workfile. Attempting to recall the output using:

Code: Select all

show walesoutput
returns an undefined error.

Can anyone shine any light on this? I am using Eviews 8.

Many thanks.

You cannot freeze add-ins.

Given you are writing code, you would be better off just modifying the rtadf add-in code so that it produces a table object. I'm not familiar with the add-in, but I would guess that it does actually produce the table you want and then deletes it at the end, so you can probably just remove the line that deletes.

HI Gareth,

Many thanks for your reply at this time in the evening.

I guessed as much but hoped there would be a simplier way; I'll have a try at amending the plug-in code and see if I have any luck.

Thanks again.
