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 AMZN 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: November 2, 2022
End date: July 17, 2024

a = 2.8250

b = 0.0014

s = 0.0545

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0014) – 1
= 64.66%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0545) – 1
= 24.37%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y825)
= Exp(a + b × X825 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,195 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.8250 + 0.0014 × 1,195 + 2 × 0.0545)
= Exp(4.5667)
= $96.23

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y825)
= Exp(a + b × X825 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,195 – 2 × s)
= Exp(2.8250 + 0.0014 × 1,195 – 2 × 0.0545)
= Exp(4.3487)
= $77.37
