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 CHRW 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: March 17, 2022
End date: May 9, 2024

a = 5.0752

b = -0.0004

s = 0.0634

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0004) – 1
= -13.48%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0634) – 1
= 28.88%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y719)
= Exp(a + b × X719 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,042 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.0752 + -0.0004 × 1,042 + 2 × 0.0634)
= Exp(4.7888)
= $120.16

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y719)
= Exp(a + b × X719 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,042 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.0752 + -0.0004 × 1,042 – 2 × 0.0634)
= Exp(4.5351)
= $93.23

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,258)
= Exp(a + b × X1,258 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.0752 + -0.0004 × 1,826 + 2 × 0.0634)
= Exp(4.4779)
= $88.05

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,258)
= Exp(a + b × X1,258 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.0752 + -0.0004 × 1,826 – 2 × 0.0634)
= Exp(4.2242)
= $68.32
