Many thank. I've downloaded the snapshot version and testes them. Perhaps, the autocorrelation and ARCH tests on "standardized" residuals (of course, if one checks the option for standardizing the residuals) should be helpful on diagnoses of "no remaining" autocorrelation and GARCH.
Surely, one can save the standardized residuals and squared residuals as series into main windows to do these tests himself. But having these test "inside" the estimated GARCH model windows (rather than going back to the "outside" main window) would be more convenient. Best regards.
