Hello,

I'm using fArma package to estimate the value of Hurst exponent using R/S
method. However, for a certain set of data I get H ~ 1.8. How do I
interpret this?

Following are the output that I get for this set:

> mean(data[,2])
[1] 400.5433
> sd(data[,2])
[1] 1139.786
>
> rsFit(data[,2], levels = 64)

Title:
 Hurst Exponent from R/S Method

Call:
 rsFit(x = data[, 2], levels = 64)

Method:
 R/S Method

Hurst Exponent:
         H     beta
  *1.826240 1.826240 *

Hurst Exponent Diagnostic:
   Estimate  Std.Err   t-value  Pr(>|t|)
X 1.826240 3.352896 0.5446755 0.5919988

Parameter Settings:
       n   levels  minnpts cut.off1 cut.off2
   11895       64        3        5      316
