BVAR

Postby zhanghuifd » Wed May 31, 2017 6:01 pm

Dear friends, I have encountered a simple problem about BVAR.
I compute BVAR directly in Eviews.
Firstly, if I want to compute the 90-percent error bands in dashed lines, is there any option for it in Eviews?
I use litterman to compute it.
Thanks for any help in advance! :shock: :shock: :?: :?:

Hi there,

I am estimating a large BVAR in EViews with 18 variables, a 12 lag structure and N-W priors.

Has anyone else encountered EViews crashing with this level of computation or is it a problem on my end?

Thanks,
Abi

Thanks for recommending the LBVAR add in. Is there any literature around the add in? I have read the paper that the add in is based on and I am a little lost as to the 'number of horizons' and 'number of MC draws' in the specification.
