garchFit()

[Majid Djennad]

Dear sir,

How can I change the starting value of beta in garchFit() function please,

i can see that the starting value you have for beta is 0.8, 

I want to produce the same results of Brooks model page 35 in the attached file, which he has beta =0.7, Brooks used RATS software and I am using R software and your package fGarch

Many thanks

Majid
