Max,
You should read the Stock and Watson article
on Vector Autoregressions. On page 103 of that 2001 article
in the Journal of Economic Perspectives, they write that "
A recursive VAR constructs the error terms in each regression equation to be
uncorrelated with the error in the preceding equations."
Also, you might run the Granger causality tests
to help you with the answer. For the OIRF, order
is critically important.
- Regards,
Robert
