Hi, I would like to estimate this regression y=aD1 +aD2 + BD1Ret + BD2Ret +e. D1 is a dummy that is 1 whrn the return is positive, whereas D2 is 1 when it is negative and zero when is positive. I want to use a garch model. Is it correct to put in the garch specification 'C' NaN and to put in the matrix with the dependent variable D1 and D2, i this way it should ignore C and the intercept would become the coefficients of D1 and D2.
I know that i could set the equation as y=a +aD2 + BRet + BD2Ret +e. but I prefer have the two different coefficient and tyhen compute the difference. Thanks in advance Gaia

Is that the U-shaped piece of logic that you have to get the plumber to come over and clear out if you don't run the garbage collector often enough?

I don't know the specific answer to your question, but I use a general approach that might be useful to you: Generate data that you know should be perfectly fitted by the model you propose, then see if the technique you want to use gives the correct result.

% Fake returns
R = randn(1000,1);
% Intercept dummy
D1 = R > 0;
% Coefficient dummy
D2 = zeros(size(R));
D2(D1) = R(D1);
% GARCH(1,1) with MA(1) for mean + dummies
Spec = garchset('M',1,'P',1,'Q',1,'Display','off');
garchfit(Spec,R,[D1 D2]);

Thanks to both. Oleg, I think that your model is good for the moving average, but I don't have to do a MA, I have to regress against other variables, like y=a+Bx+e but with dummies. By the way I empirically tried as the cyclist suggested and it seems working. It is a good method, I didn't think about it, I'm sorry but it is my first "empirical work ".

Shouldn't give you problems but don't take my words for granted. I am no expert in ARCH modelling, just know how to implement it with MATLAB.

Thanks, it was jusr a confirmation, I spent a day looking for an answer but I didn't find anything... I reasoned about that and i don't think it creates...I hope
