Hi, I am running GWAS in BLINK and as far as I am aware, I did everything correctly. The log file seems to show everything went fine, but the results.txt file is nonsensical: i mostly have p values of exactly 0 or 1, and the rest are huge values of -log10 > 200. My qqplots are horrible as well, just a line shooting upwards, i cannot even seem to plot the manhattan plots. Can someone explain to me what is going on? Also, why doesn't BLINK report effect sizes???
