Hello everybody,
I need your help about the package SN and the skew student distribution. Il 
will be very grateful if I have the solution.
 
I construct a stochastic model with a white noise not gaussian but following a 
skew student distribution. I fit the noise on monthly data to obtain the four 
parameters. The question is : how to annualize the parameters to use my model 
for simulate daily data for example ? 
 
If the volatility is estimated to 3 for example, I need to multiply this by 
sqrt(12) to have for the parameter of volatility of the skew student : 
3*sqrt(12)*sqrt(dt) with "dt" the time increment parameter (1/12 for monthly 
data, 1/261 for daily data, and so on). Do I do the same thing (and what is the 
multiplicative factor ?) for the parameters of asymmetry and the degree of 
freedom ?
 
Thanks a lot !
Best regards
 
Pierre.
