step 1: logrithms daily DAX-index, LNDAX=log(dax)
step 2: unit root test, select level, ADF is greater than crical value, H0 is rejected
step 3: unit root test, select first order difference, ADF is less then critical value at 99% confidence, H0 can not be rejected (-51.03<-3.96), then non unit root, it is now stationary.
step 4: i create a new serie: E=LNDAX-mean(LNDAX), i am not sure if it is right , or shall i differece E at first order???
step 5: command ls e ar(1) ma(1)
step 6: result with R
attatched document is my data.
For another question, the result with ARMA(1,1) is not far better than OLS with LNDAX=c+c(1)+LNDAX(-1 to -3), they are all over 99.8%, is ARMA process here necessary?
Thanks in advance!!!
