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 CME 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: September 21, 2022
End date: April 26, 2024

a = 4.3781

b = 0.0006

s = 0.0324

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0006) – 1
= 23.71%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0324) – 1
= 13.83%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y794)
= Exp(a + b × X794 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,150 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.3781 + 0.0006 × 1,150 + 2 × 0.0324)
= Exp(5.1134)
= $166.23

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y794)
= Exp(a + b × X794 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,150 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.3781 + 0.0006 × 1,150 – 2 × 0.0324)
= Exp(4.9838)
= $146.03

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,195)
= Exp(a + b × X1,195 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,733 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.3781 + 0.0006 × 1,733 + 2 × 0.0324)
= Exp(5.4532)
= $233.51

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,195)
= Exp(a + b × X1,195 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,733 – 2 × s)
