Removing a regressor

Hi,

Does anyone know if it is possible to remove a regressor from an inbuilt equation. I am trying to remove one regressor from the EGARCH equation and replace is with a slightly different one. I know that a regressor can be added using the variance regressor field in the equation estimation screen but is it possible to remove one?

Thanks

Not sure what you're asking. Can't you just not type that regressor in as part of the equation specification?

Sorry Gareth,

I wasn't very clear at all, regressor not the best word. When you estimate an EGARCH eqaution there are 4 variance coefficients based on Nelson's specification (i.e. C(2) C(3) C(4) C(5). However I want to slightly change one as I'm using range based data instead of return (can't code up a new equation and don't have the time to learn unfortunately!!!).

I can add the coefficient I want to the variance regressor field but the one I want to remove remains

Thanks

You cannot modify or remove those.
