Hi, a little update...I tryed also to change the distribution of the reisduals from normal to t, but no success alpha1 is always equal to 1. And also reducing the model to a arma(0,4) and arma(0,3), doesn't change anything. Here there is also the data set I'm trying to fit. Regards and thanks for the help, Filippo

+0100 From: Filippo Monari <ingf...@gmail.com> To: r-help@r-project.org Hi, I'm using "garchFit" function from packages fGarch, to fit some nose. The weird thing is that in some cases the estimate for the alpha1 coefficient is equal to 1, which can't be otherwise the model is not stable. Even more alpha1 = 1 makes impossible to simulate the model. My model is an ARMA(1,5)/GARCH(2,0), could be a probelm coused by overfitting? All my parameters seems to be significant... Can anyone help me to undestand way this is happening? Below there is the output from the function. Thanks in advance , regards, Filippo. This is the output from the function: Title: GARCH Modelling Call: garchFit(formula = ~arma(1, 5) + garch(2, 0), data = Text.noise, trace = F) Mean and Variance Equation: data ~ arma(1, 5) + garch(2, 0) <environment: 0xca9e848> [data = Text.noise] Conditional Distribution: norm Coefficient(s): mu ar1 ma1 ma2 ma3 ma4 -7.9290e-15 -4.1513e-01 -1.0000e+00 -6.4137e-01 5.0686e-01 2.0932e-01 ma5 omega alpha1 alpha2 -6.1404e-02 9.2491e-04 1.0000e+00 1.0000e+00 Std.
