Part 1 of a full time series analysis curriculum

Ratings: 3.50 / 5.00




Description

In this course we explore R's capability to model time series data with some of the most basic and widely used model types. We'll learn what a simple moving average is and how R can take the analysis of data in this model to a higher level, then we move on to exponential models which are the most widely used types for financial market data. Finally generalizing the EMA model to compound modeling in R and introducing a newer more powerful Theta model as a tool.
