T=length(returns)
omega=x(1);
alpha=x(2);
beta=x(3);
sigma=zeros(T,1)
sigma(1)=0.011207749644594;
likelihood=0
for i=2:T;
sigma(i) = sqrt( omega + alpha*returns(i-1)^2 + beta*sigma(i-1)^2 );
likelihood = likelihood + 0.5*(-log(2*pi)-log(sigma(i)^2) - (returns(i)/sigma(i))^2);
end
y = -likelihood;
end
I have this function for the estimation of the maximum likelihood for garch. However, although it estimats perfectly the likelihood, once I want to minimize it trough the function fmincon i get the error shown in the Title. Can someone help me understand what is wrong? Thanks.
