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 AMCR 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: August 10, 2021
End date: May 1, 2024

a = 2.6015

b = -0.0002

s = 0.0617

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0002) – 1
= -8.08%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0617) – 1
= 28.01%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y513)
= Exp(a + b × X513 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 743 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.6015 + -0.0002 × 743 + 2 × 0.0617)
= Exp(2.5535)
= $12.85

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y513)
= Exp(a + b × X513 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 743 – 2 × s)
= Exp(2.6015 + -0.0002 × 743 – 2 × 0.0617)
= Exp(2.3065)
= $10.04

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,198)
= Exp(a + b × X1,198 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,738 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.6015 + -0.0002 × 1,738 + 2 × 0.0617)
= Exp(2.3239)
= $10.22

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,198)
= Exp(a + b × X1,198 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,738 – 2 × s)
= Exp(2.6015 + -0.0002 × 1,738 – 2 × 0.0617)
= Exp(2.0769)
= $7.98
