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 ANSS 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: May 9, 2022
End date: April 30, 2024

a = 4.8897

b = 0.0005

s = 0.0868

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0005) – 1
= 21.26%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0868) – 1
= 41.50%

May 9, 2022 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y756)
= Exp(a + b × X756 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,096 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.8897 + 0.0005 × 1,096 + 2 × 0.0868)
= Exp(5.6420)
= $282.04

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y756)
= Exp(a + b × X756 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,096 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.8897 + 0.0005 × 1,096 – 2 × 0.0868)
= Exp(5.2949)
= $199.32

April 30, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,252)
= Exp(a + b × X1,252 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,818 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.8897 + 0.0005 × 1,818 + 2 × 0.0868)
= Exp(6.0233)
= $412.95

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,252)
= Exp(a + b × X1,252 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,818 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.8897 + 0.0005 × 1,818 – 2 × 0.0868)
= Exp(5.6762)
= $291.83

a = 9.8094

b = -0.0022

s = 0.0132

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0022) – 1
= -55.50%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0132) – 1
= 5.42%

March 21, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,225)
= Exp(a + b × X1,225 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,778 + 2 × s)
= Exp(9.8094 + -0.0022 × 1,778 + 2 × 0.0132)
= Exp(5.8911)
= $361.80

Bottom border of price channel:
