You asked the same question on 22 November.
When there is no response, often a question is perceived as not being
clear enough to answer.
I read this as fitting a logistic growth curve to time series. The
upper asymptote is unknown and thus a parameter to be estimated. This
is a classic for -nl-: indeed a sample program -log3- for precisely
this model is bundled with Stata. Have look at the manual entry for
-nl-.
