Dave, many thanks for getting back to me.

I'm a statistics beginner, and would like to test for the random walk in a series of stock prices.  

I plan to use the varaince ratio test to test my variables variance against that of a random walk (1).  

Is this just code:  sdtest myvar ==1 

And if so how do I interpret how the results from a the sdtest?  i.e. how do I know if it has rejected the null hypothesis.

Many thanks

Mark

In what context?

See -sdtest- and -robvar-.
