impulse responses

Postby ying2728 » Sun Dec 02, 2012 2:21 am

I know the procedure @varirf uses choleski shocks. But does it use one standard deviation shock or one unit shock?
How can I change one from the other?

Thanks.

They are one standard deviation in the Choleski factor orthonormalization. What do you mean by "unit shocks"?
