The output indicates that the p-values are above 0.15 in all windows between the minimum window [-1.000, 1.000] and the window [-1.090, 1.090]. The p-value is correct, but I am confused about the observations (136 below, 45 above) for the recommended window. Because X1 is my running variable, which is mentioned below. I think it should be 75 below and 46 above observation in the recommended window, or are my results correct?

Recommended window is [-1.090; 1.090] with 181 observations (136 below, 45 above).
