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 ASTE 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 24, 2020
End date: July 25, 2024

a = 4.4138

b = -0.0005

s = 0.1486

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0005) – 1
= -16.82%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1486) – 1
= 81.16%

November 24, 2020 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y337)
= Exp(a + b × X337 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 487 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.4138 + -0.0005 × 487 + 2 × 0.1486)
= Exp(4.4652)
= $86.94

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y337)
= Exp(a + b × X337 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 487 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.4138 + -0.0005 × 487 – 2 × 0.1486)
= Exp(3.8710)
= $47.99

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.4138 + -0.0005 × 1,826 + 2 × 0.1486)
= Exp(3.7896)
= $44.24

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.4138 + -0.0005 × 1,826 – 2 × 0.1486)
= Exp(3.1954)
= $24.42
