Aug 29, 2011 at 6:39 comment added mpiktas @Brandon, I've changed the wording. I though about it and I came to conclusion, that I use expression accepting null as a slang, I usually mean the correct version, but the correct version is too long :)

Aug 24, 2011 at 14:39 comment added ECOtime mpiktas, what do you think about ZIVOT? maybe i should use both?
Aug 24, 2011 at 14:38 vote accept ECOtime
Aug 24, 2011 at 14:13 comment added ECOtime mpiktas after this check I will use ADF and Johansen procedure for the cointegration, so surelly there are other tests after this. But, the other don't check structural breaks, for this reason i'm looking for a good method for breaks...(forex prices)
Aug 24, 2011 at 14:05 comment added mpiktas @Ecotime, what is the purpose of the testing? If you want only a quick check, then you can perfectly assume that there are no structural breaks, but be prepared to revisit this assumption.
Aug 24, 2011 at 14:04 comment added mpiktas @Ecotime, no method is perfect. Usually different methods should be used in different situations. Hence it is always prudent not to base your decision on one method only, unless you have a good reason for that. You did not give any context, hence the disclaimer attached.
Aug 24, 2011 at 14:01 comment added ECOtime @ mpiktas, I'm testing forex prices time series.
Aug 24, 2011 at 13:55 comment added ECOtime mpiktas I don't know you told me to do other investigation and i thought that this method is not very good.
Aug 24, 2011 at 13:49 comment added mpiktas How do you define better?
Aug 24, 2011 at 13:49 comment added mpiktas Null hypothesis is rejected if the p-value is less than the significance level. So if significance level is 0.05 and p-value is 0.063 null hypothesis should be accepted. Now null hypothesis is that there are no structural breaks. As for further investigation, there are a lot of things you can do, but they depend on your initial purpose of applying the test.
Aug 24, 2011 at 13:46 comment added ECOtime better CUSUM Method?
Aug 24, 2011 at 13:39 comment added ECOtime two things: (1) 0.063 is above 0.05 so why can i accept it? maybe should be below..no? (2) what other investigation should i do? what methods? thank you!
