Moving Average Model over error terms
This is a basic question on Box-Jenkins MA models. As I understand, an MA model is basically a linear regression of time-series values Y against previous error terms et,...,et−n. That is, the ...

How to fit a MA(q) model for forecasting?
I have some trouble with understanding how to fit a pure MA(q) (Moving-Average Model of order q) to a time-series in order to forecast future values.
We do not have any past forecasting errors, ...

Intuition behind MA(q) (moving average) time series forecasting model (i.e. 'MA' part of ARIMA) and implementation
The $AR(n)$ part of ARIMA makes sense to me. If
$$x_{t+1}=\sum_{i=0}^n a_ix_{t-i}$$
then we are making the intuitive assumption that the next time step will somehow depend on the previous time ...

Where does the white noise come from in MA(q) model?
I'm having trouble understanding the intuition of the moving average model. How is summing up a bunch of white noises related to predicting your particular time series data?
Suppose I have a MA(q) ...

What is a correct implementation of the moving average model
I would like to implement a moving average model in python as when I try to use the statsmodels library, specifically the ARMA(p,q) function and setting $p=0$ I get a lot of convergence errors in the ...

Why is auto.arima modeling an AR(1) process as an MA(1)?
Playing around with auto.arima to see how effective it is at model selection. I first simulated an $AR(1)$ process with $X_{t+1} = 0.9 X_t + \epsilon_t$

I computed ARMA equation from R manually but never got the same result with predict() or forecast() provided by R
I've got a little problem here. I've been doing analysis with time series data using ARMA, and it always turns out that the parameters I get from R didn't fit to my computation when I do it manually.
