Question
Suppose that the data are quarterly, so that T = 4; to smoothen out seasonal variations we cannot use simple moving average with period T = 4 (because number is even), and if we use T = 5, one season (e.g. winter and next winter) would be counted twice. How to recover from this?
Answer
Use T = 5 weighted average and weight down the season counted twice with 0.5 (relative to other periods' weights).

If a time series Xt is described by an additive model with constant level and no seasonality, 1-step ahead forecasts may be obtained by simple [...] using the formula
\(\hat{x}_{n+1}\) = αxn + (1 − α)\(\hat{x}_n\)
where:
  • xn is the observed value at time n,
  • \(\hat{x}_n\)​and \(\hat{x}_{n+1}\)are the 1-step ahead forecasts of Xn and Xn+1,
  • and α is a smoothing parameter, 0 ≤ α ≤ 1.
The method requires an initial value \(\hat{x}_1\), which is often chosen to be x1 : \(\hat{x}_1\) = x1.
Answer

Question
what does the expanded m-times (i.e. non recursive) simple exponential smoothing formula looks like?
fully recursive is:

\(\hat{x}_{n+1}\)= αxn + (1 − α)\(\hat{x}_n\)
Answer
expanded m-times is
\(\large \hat{x}_{n+1} = \sum_{i=0}^m\alpha(1-\alpha)^ix_{n-i}+(1-\alpha)^{m+1}\hat{x}_{n-m}\)

Estimates of these parameters taken from a sample are called statistics. Much of the field of statistics is devoted to drawing inferences from a sample concerning the value of a population parameter. <span>A statistic is defined as a numerical quantity (such as the mean) calculated in a sample. It has two different meanings. Most commonly, statistics refers to numerical data such as a company's earnings per share or average returns over the past five years. Statistics can also refer to the process of collecting, organizing, presenting, analyzing, and interpreting numerical data for the purpose of making decisions. Note that we will always know the exact composition of our sample, and by definition, we will always know the values within our sample. Ascertaining this information is the purpose of samples.
