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 BGS 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 26, 2021
End date: July 25, 2024

a = 4.1133

b = -0.0011

s = 0.1445

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0011) – 1
= -33.79%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1445) – 1
= 78.22%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y462)
= Exp(a + b × X462 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 670 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.1133 + -0.0011 × 670 + 2 × 0.1445)
= Exp(3.6452)
= $38.29

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y462)
= Exp(a + b × X462 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 670 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.1133 + -0.0011 × 670 – 2 × 0.1445)
= Exp(3.0674)
= $21.49

Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.1133 + -0.0011 × 1,826 + 2 × 0.1445)
= Exp(2.3391)
= $10.37

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.1133 + -0.0011 × 1,826 – 2 × 0.1445)
= Exp(1.7613)
= $5.82
