Well, this code is close in spirit to yours, and does work,
so there has to
be a material difference that let`s yours fail and not
mine:
**
sysuse tsline1, clear
tsset lags
tw (tsline ar) (tsline ma)/*
*/ if tin(40,160)
**
I suspect that you have to specify the arguments to -tin()-
differently, as
shown in -help f_tin-.
