AR p order (that's running AR command rather than OLS).
If I understand you right, you should be able to do that using the
arma command in gretl (though of course estimation will not be via
OLS). For example:
open denmark.gdt
arma 0 0 2 ; 1 2 3 4 0
successfully estimates a money demand equation with 2 MA lags, no
AR.
Trying to use ARMA command, I've received a Collineality message.
Maybe the model is mis-specified?
2) Just checking the last mail lists, I've figured that running
a ADF test over Eviews more than once, I've got the same
different results of p-values. But then I noticed that the lags
(calculated automaticly by eviews) were different in each cases,
so the p-values were also different.
There are various ways of automating the selection of the lag
order in ADF (t or z test, F-test, Akaike; and if a test, what
p-value is used?). The algorithm used by gretl is set out quite
explicitly in the command help. I guess what Eviews does must be
a bit different.
