Linear Regression Model

Model equation:
Yi = α + β × Xi + εi

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Yi) = Exp(a + b × Xi + 2 × s)

Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Yi) = Exp(a + b × Xi – 2 × s)

where:

i - observation number
Yi - natural logarithm of ADBE price
Xi - time index, 1 day interval
σ - standard deviation of εi
a - estimator of α
b - estimator of β
s - estimator of σ
Exp() - calculates the exponent of e


Primary Trend

Start date: September 15, 2022
End date: February 14, 2024

a = 3.6119

b = 0.0016

s = 0.0705

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0016) – 1
= 82.26%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0705) – 1
= 32.59%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y853)
= Exp(a + b × X853 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,235 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.6119 + 0.0016 × 1,235 + 2 × 0.0705)
= Exp(5.7840)
= $325.05

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y853)
= Exp(a + b × X853 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,235 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.6119 + 0.0016 × 1,235 – 2 × 0.0705)
= Exp(5.5019)
= $245.16
