To estimate GARCH models, use the -arch- command. For example, to
estimate a GARCH(1,1) model similar to what you specified (did not
test the code, not sure if it converges):
webuse wpi1
arch D.ln_wpi, arima(4,0,0) arch(1) garch(1)
and to get the standardized residuals e(star)
predict res, resid
predict h, var
gen stdres=res/h
