forecasting - Does ETS smoothing model work for more than one year forecast in R? -


i using ets() forecast future values based on historic time series data in r. used forecast() function predict next 24 data points. however, output gives same numbers first 12 , last 12 data points. example, forecast-ed value of may 2012 replicated in may 2013.

following data passed:

kindly help.

look @ fitted model:

ets(a,n,a)   call:  ets(y = x)     smoothing parameters:     alpha = 0.5449      gamma = 1e-04     initial states:     l = 95.8994      s=6.3817 -3.1792 6.8525 3.218 -3.4445 -1.2408            -4.5852 0.4434 1.7133 0.8123 -1.28 -5.6914    sigma:  4.1325       aic     aicc      bic  613.8103 620.1740 647.3326

so there no trend selected. therefore forecasts have seasonal pattern , no trend, you've got.
