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 CSCO 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: August 7, 2023
End date: April 26, 2024

a = 4.6827

b = -0.0004

s = 0.0313

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0004) – 1
= -15.12%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0313) – 1
= 13.36%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,076)
= Exp(a + b × X1,076 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,561 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.6827 + -0.0004 × 1,561 + 2 × 0.0313)
= Exp(4.0441)
= $57.06

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,076)
= Exp(a + b × X1,076 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,561 – 2 × s)
