Estimation using the backcasting method of box and jenkins, conditional least squares, ml or gls. Last few data samples are generally important predictors of the future outcome. Stationarity and seasonality the first step in developing a box jenkins model is to determine if the series is stationary and if there is any significant seasonality that needs to be modeled detecting stationarity stationarity can be assessed from a run sequence plot. The methodology is outlined in the book time series analysis.
