Dear all,

After estimating a DSGE model and obtaining the posterior mean of the parameters’’ distribution I wish to simulate the model at this posterior mean. Is it possible to instruct Dynare to directly run the simulation at the posterior mean (e.g. by using stoch\_simul) automatically after the estimation? Or does one necessarily have to write e separate simulation file where one need to manually input the posteror mean parameter estimates?

Thanks in advance for any feedback!

George
