Dear Listers, I am working with cac40 time series data (from 03-01-2000 to 08-11-2006). I estimated, with successful, a simple ARMA(6,0)-GARCH(1,1) but I think tha it is better an ARMA(6,0)-TGARCH(1,1). For this I used the garchFit() function , setting: garchFit(formula.var=~arma(6,0),formula.var=~aparch(1,1),series=cac,delta=2, cond.dist="dnorm",include.delta=FALSE) I obtain a strange value of gamma1 (1) ,I think that it wrong, the expected value would be near 0.12, and the ARCH sign is positive instead of negative. How can solve this problem? Are you able to say me where I mistaked? Best regards.
ARMA(m,n)-APARCH(p,q)

The estimation is by MLE and so completely depends on the optimizer you specify. I would take the loglikelihood function and try with a global optimizer like SA or diff evolution. The DE works with a population of solns and so you can get a distibution of the parameters and get a sense if there are multiple local minima.
