Not clear to me what the OP really wants.  Perhaps the seasonal
model is what's required; perhaps an arima(1,0,4) model with
theta_2 and theta_3 constrained to be 0.  The latter can be
achieved with

        arima(x,order=c(1,0,4),fixed=c(NA,NA,0,0,NA,NA))

Or perhaps it's something else entirely that's wanted ....

        cheers,

Hi,

I'm trying to model an ARMA(1,[1,4]),
i.e. I want only lags 1 and 4 of the Moving Average part.
It's the '[1,4]' part that is giving me a problem.

I've tried different arma's and arima's in different packages, namely:
packages tseries, fArma, FinTS, timeSeries, TSA, Zelig, ds1, forecast


For example, with package FinTS:

( ARIMA(y, order=c(1,0,c(1,4)))  )
Error in arima(x = x, order = order, seasonal = seasonal, xreg = xreg, :
  'order' must be a non-negative numeric vector of length 3

Using ARIMA(1,0,1) with a seasonal argument for lag 4
does not get me any further.

What's wrong with

arima(x, order=c(1,0,1), seasonal=list(order=c(0,0,1), period=4))

using stats::arima?

With package Zelig I got:

(  zelig(Diff(lppi,1) ~ one + lag.y(1) + lag.eps(1) + lag.eps(4) ,
model="arima"  , data=Q)  )
Error in model.frame.default(mf$formula, data) :
  invalid type (list) for variable 'lag.eps(1)'

I get basically the same kind of answers with other packages
and with different configurations.
