pool series syntax for program

[jenni]

Eviews,

I am programming out of sample estimations for my pool. To declare series for the final result of forecasts and standard errors what is the syntax for a pool I want to derive forecast for each cross section is there a way to use the wildcard ? what syntax do you recommend

Pools do not have forecasting built in (one of the disadvantages of using pools rather than panels). You have to use proc->make model (or pool.makemodel) to make a model object out of your pool then solve the model over the forecast sample.

Your question is quite jumbled, but I think that's what you're asking.

Eviews,

I know how to forecast from a pool and your answer is a bit jumbled to me , partly my phrasing and partly your impatience.

In a single equation estimation if you want to declare a series to store temporary forecasts or calculation your syntax is "series yhat etc"
My question is that if I want to run an out of sample program for a pool what is the syntax to store the temp forecasts/calculation for each cross section. Is there a specific syntax like if you want to generate a series in a pool you declare pool.genr is something like pool.series

I could do something primitive but I wanted something that was smooth to run

PS if you don't understand what I am asking please be polite. To say someone is jumbled in a public forum is a put down that is unnecessary

pool.genr yhat?=na
