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 BC 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: January 11, 2021
End date: January 20, 2023

a = 4.8852

b = -0.0005

s = 0.0886

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0005) – 1
= -17.31%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0886) – 1
= 42.56%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y367)
= Exp(a + b × X367 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 532 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.8852 + -0.0005 × 532 + 2 × 0.0886)
= Exp(4.7856)
= $119.77

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y367)
= Exp(a + b × X367 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 532 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.8852 + -0.0005 × 532 – 2 × 0.0886)
= Exp(4.4310)
= $84.02

January 20, 2023 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y877)
= Exp(a + b × X877 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,271 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.8852 + -0.0005 × 1,271 + 2 × 0.0886)
= Exp(4.4008)
= $81.52

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y877)
= Exp(a + b × X877 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,271 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.8852 + -0.0005 × 1,271 – 2 × 0.0886)
= Exp(4.0463)
= $57.18

a = 3.9590

b = 0.0003

s = 0.0749

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0003) – 1
= 10.94%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y675)
= Exp(a + b × X675 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 976 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.9590 + 0.0003 × 976 + 2 × 0.0749)
= Exp(4.3864)
= $80.35

Bottom border of price channel:
