Correct guess! ARIMA gave me good results using the last 336 samples as input, so I though I'd try with the whole 1000. I am abviously not an expert statistician and I am working on a brute force approach by trying all the p, d, q and P, D, Q seasonal parameters... > (The basic information we ask for in the posting guide such as the version > of R and your platform is missing here.)
