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 BAX 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

Start date: March 26, 2021
End date: January 4, 2024
a = 5.0950
b = -0.0010
s = 0.1011
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0010) – 1
= -29.63%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1011) – 1
= 49.82%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y419)
= Exp(a + b × X419 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 606 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.0950 + -0.0010 × 606 + 2 × 0.1011)
= Exp(4.7136)
= $111.46
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y419)
= Exp(a + b × X419 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 606 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.0950 + -0.0010 × 606 – 2 × 0.1011)
= Exp(4.3094)
= $74.39

= Exp(3.7372)
= $41.98
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,117)
= Exp(a + b × X1,117 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,620 – 2 × s)
