Hi there, thanks for the quick response! I gonna try the 'functional approach' and see how it performs. I also gonna have a look at the paper concerning quadratic programming, but that will be for some rainy WE in autumn. In the meantime a write a VBA script. Have a nice day Leon > Am 05.10.2

Hi there, it's been a while since my last post...how was the gretl conference in Berlin?) Today I'm concerned with an optimization problem. I have the following goal: Find a linear combination of input series in such a way that - the resulting series is used to calculate the difference to another

Is it not the case that when the coefficients have a t-distribution that the ols estimates have minimum variance and thus maximise the t-statistics. If you are trying to fit a heavy tailed distribution to some phenomenum and wis to estimate the appropriate degrees of freedom be sure to use a form
