MD,
Or if you have trouble obtaining the data that way, try
Suppose you had a GARCH(2,1) model and you wish to constrain your
ARCH L1=.5*ARCH L2, you could set up the constraint as follows:
use http://www.stata-press.com/data/r10/dow1.dta, clear
tsset date
constraint define 1 (1/2)[ARCH]l1.arch=[ARCH]l2.arch
arch ln_dow, arch(1/2) garch(1) constraint(1)
or if you wanted Arch L.1=2*ARCH L2, you could use the following constraint
constraint define 1 (2)[ARCH]l1.arch=[ARCH]l2.arch
arch ln_dow, arch(1/2) garch(1) constraint(1)
