Hi,

I have run a GARCH (1,1) model with a Student's T distribution on logged returns of the FTSE 100 index over 6/10/2005 - 6/8/2010. I want to obtain the forecast standard devation for the next day how do I do this?

Thanks
Gerry

Hit the Forecast button, and fill in a name in the "GARCH(optional)" box. The forecasted values will then be put into a series of that name in your workfile.

To forecast over a particular period, just change the "Forecast sample" box.
