MOM-RLPAFC asymptotic confidence interval.
Criterion: for a period , the procedure looks for the largest order so that all estimations for are not significant.

Criterion: for a period m, the procedure looks for the largest order i so that all estimations for are significant. This criterion does not admit nonsignificant intermediary lags.
