Does rollapply() allow an array of results from call to function?

问题

# Loading packages

require(forecast)
require(quantmod)

# Loading OHLC xts object

getSymbols('SPY', from = '1950-01-01')

# Selecting weekly Close prices

x <- Cl(to.weekly(SPY))

# ARIMA(p,d,q) estimation and forecasting function

a.ari.fun <- function(x) {

  a.ari <- auto.arima(x = x, d = 1, max.p = 50, max.q = 50, max.P = 50,
                      max.Q = 50, ic = 'aic', approximation = TRUE)
  fore <- forecast.Arima(object = a.ari, h = 4, level = c(.9))
  supp <- tail(fore$lower, 1)
  rest <- tail(fore$upper, 1)
  return(c(supp, rest))

}

# Roll apply ARIMA(p,d,q) in rolling window

rollapplyr(data = tail(x, 800), width = 750, FUN = a.ari.fun)

This code returns me an error because of

return(c(supp, rest))

at the end of a.ari.fun() function I wrote; I'm sure about that because if a.ari.fun() returns just

return(rest)

it works fine.

How do I have to arrange the a.ari.fun() in order to obtain an object suitable to rollapplyr()?

回答1:

It looks like using by.column=FALSE will give what you request.

tail(rollapplyr(data = as.zoo(x), width = 750, FUN = a.ari.fun, by.column=FALSE))

~~If you have PerformanceAnalytics loaded rollapply.xts will be dispatched instead of rollapply.zoo. I edited to convert the object to zoo first to make sure the right rollapply is called.~~

EDIT:

Thanks to some patching from @JoshuaUlrich, this now works with rollapply.xts,so you do not have to convert to zoo. Also, rollapply.xts is now registered in the xts package instead of PerformanceAnalytics, so you will get the same results regardless of whether or not PerformanceAnalytics is loaded. You'll need the under development version of xts -- Rev. 765 or later -- which is on R-Forge.

rollapplyr(x, 750, a.ari.fun, by.column=FALSE)
