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 CINF 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: April 29, 2021
End date: January 18, 2024

a = 4.8188

b = -0.0001

s = 0.0708

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0001) – 1
= -4.90%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0708) – 1
= 32.72%

April 29, 2021 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y442)
= Exp(a + b × X442 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 640 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.8188 + -0.0001 × 640 + 2 × 0.0708)
= Exp(4.8723)
= $130.62

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y442)
= Exp(a + b × X442 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 640 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.8188 + -0.0001 × 640 – 2 × 0.0708)
= Exp(4.5892)
= $98.41

January 18, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,126)
= Exp(a + b × X1,126 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,634 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.8188 + -0.0001 × 1,634 + 2 × 0.0708)
= Exp(4.7354)
= $113.91

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,126)
= Exp(a + b × X1,126 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,634 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.8188 + -0.0001 × 1,634 – 2 × 0.0708)
= Exp(4.4523)
= $85.83

a = 3.7564

b = 0.0006

s = 0.0373

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0006) – 1
