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 CRVL 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: June 30, 2021
End date: January 26, 2023

a = 5.3398

b = -0.0002

s = 0.0993

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0002) – 1
= -8.45%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0993) – 1
= 48.78%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y536)
= Exp(a + b × X536 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 777 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.3398 + -0.0002 × 777 + 2 × 0.0993)
= Exp(5.3504)
= $210.69

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y536)
= Exp(a + b × X536 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 777 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.3398 + -0.0002 × 777 – 2 × 0.0993)
= Exp(4.9531)
= $141.61

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y932)
= Exp(a + b × X932 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,352 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.3398 + -0.0002 × 1,352 + 2 × 0.0993)
= Exp(5.2112)
= $183.32

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y932)
= Exp(a + b × X932 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,352 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.3398 + -0.0002 × 1,352 – 2 × 0.0993)
= Exp(4.8139)
= $123.22
