Hi,

I need to predict exchange rates using time series. So according to ACF and 
PACF knowledge, mixed model (ARIMA) be the appropriate and now, I need to find 
order of the model (p,d,q). So, several models were fitted to select the 
suitable model using arima(). 


Could you please tell me the procedure of selecting the correct order as I 
don't have enough time to search?

Thank you.

Sajeeka Nanayakkara

No, arima() does not select models by AIC. That is the default behavior 
of ar(); arima() does NOT select models, it selects, using optim, values 
for the parameters of a specified model. You must choose the orders 
yourself.

Hope this helps,
