Hi, i have two variables - hpi and sp500. My training data set is from 2011m2 to 2019m12. Using a VAR VECM model I am trying to forecast hpi from 2020m1 through 2020m11. I already have the forecasts for sp500 through 2020m11. But I keep getting this error in Eviews (see attached). Please advice.

Also is there a step by step guide or examples on how to use a VECM model to forecast 2-3 years into the future if only one variable's forecasts are available and the other variable (e.g. hpi) only has actuals (history)? Also attaching working file.

Thanks in advance!

I opened var_vecm and changed the forecast to 2020m1 to 2020m11 and hit the forecast button. It worked perfectly, (I realize that's not very helpful.)

Any chance you have an out-of-date version of EViews?

Thanks, that worked on my end too. Simple enough!
