IRFs with MS-VAR

Hi - I am estimating a two state Markov Switching VAR. Is it possible to compare IRF in State 1 versus State 2 as I am only seeing one set or response when graphed.

Thanks,

CNR

Are your lag coefficients regime-specific? If they are not, then the impulse-responses are not regime-specific. If they are, then you will see a spool with the IRs for each regime.

Ah, I see. I had forgotten to tick the 'lagged endogenous' box. I am now seeing the two impulses.

Thanks for that Glenn!
