Nograph / smoothed shocks

Dynare help (legacy posts)
1

Hi Michel,

I am trying to estimate one parameter for the new keynesian model with only one period of information. The estimation itself works nicely and provides reasonable posterior mode. Next, the program starts graphing smoothed shocks and there it crashes with the enclosed code.

I am quite happy with the estimation results and would like to keep program running. Is there a way to bypass graphing of smoothed shocks? nograph and nodiagnostics option do not help.

Cheers,

Mika

Hi Mika,

unfortunately nograph isn’t always working correctly. I see only a manual solution:
copy dynare_estimation.m in your working directory and comment out the graphing instructions that make problem (around line 679).
