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 COF 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 9, 2023
End date: January 2, 2026
a = 3.7002
b = 0.0010
s = 0.0777
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0010) – 1
= 43.10%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0777) – 1
= 36.44%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y547)
= Exp(a + b × X547 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 793 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.7002 + 0.0010 × 793 + 2 × 0.0777)
= Exp(4.6340)
= $102.93
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y547)
= Exp(a + b × X547 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 793 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.7002 + 0.0010 × 793 – 2 × 0.0777)
= Exp(4.3233)
= $75.44
