I have 5 series, I did ADF on my series and found that 3 series have unit roots(x1, x2, and x3) and 2 don't(x4 and x5). Still using the level variables I did Engle e Granger test and Johansen test( Trace test indicates 2 cointegrating) and found that there is cointegration between the series.
how should I proceed with this? Can I mix differentiate with non differentiate variables? Should I do a VAR for the first differences in the series or a VECM?

$\begingroup$ See these threads. Your question is likely a duplicate of one of these. $\endgroup$– Richard HardyCommented Feb 27, 2021 at 18:35

$\begingroup$ Does this answer your question? VAR or VECM for a mix of stationary and nonstationary variables $\endgroup$– Richard HardyCommented Feb 27, 2021 at 18:37

$\begingroup$ HI Richard, i saw your answer and i have a question: I changed my variables and now I have 3 OF THEN ARE STATIONARY (x1, x2 and x3) and 2 are NOT. -Test each pair of the nonstationary series (x1 and x2; x1 and x3; x2 and x3) for cointegration using the Johansen or the Engle-Granger test . i did this for the stationary the series cointegrated using Engle-Granger and then using Johansen Trace test indicated 3 cointegrating. $\endgroup$– RoutoCharlesCommented Feb 27, 2021 at 19:04

$\begingroup$ @RichardHardy and For the non-stationarity series they not cointegrated in level, but cointegrated in first differences. What should I do? I didn't understand how to do "If (C) then build a model where..." this $\endgroup$– RoutoCharlesCommented Feb 27, 2021 at 19:13
