Hello, I am working in a model. I was working in cointegration of my series. They are in levels (for example GDP per capita, and Exports). I applied log and started working. they were integrated and I apply VECM. In the long run relationship all variables were significant. However in the short run equation just the dependent variable (lagged) was significant. What can I do. Just to say that the variables have strong relationship in the long run but not in the short run? Should the not significant variables be removed of the short run equation? (I guess yes)

Confronting this problem. I am trying some alternatives. I ask if it is correct to take the original series and determine the growth rate of my series. The growth rate of the series calculated by (Xt – Xt-1)/Xt-1 and try a short run relationship between this growth rates. In fact, I obtained a good model whit the growth rates but I don`t know if it is correct. I know that I(0) series can be regress directly but my worry is if "licit" this transformations of the variables in levels to obtain the growth rates. Thank all you
