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 DAY 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: May 30, 2024
End date: December 27, 2024

a = -0.2555

b = 0.0026

s = 0.0560

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0026) – 1
= 155.67%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0560) – 1
= 25.12%

May 30, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,097)
= Exp(a + b × X1,097 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,591 + 2 × s)
= Exp(-0.2555 + 0.0026 × 1,591 + 2 × 0.0560)
= Exp(3.9483)
= $51.85

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,097)
= Exp(a + b × X1,097 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,591 – 2 × s)
= Exp(-0.2555 + 0.0026 × 1,591 – 2 × 0.0560)
= Exp(3.7242)
= $41.44

December 27, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,243)
= Exp(a + b × X1,243 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,802 + 2 × s)
= Exp(-0.2555 + 0.0026 × 1,802 + 2 × 0.0560)
= Exp(4.4910)
= $89.21

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,243)
= Exp(a + b × X1,243 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,802 – 2 × s)
= Exp(-0.2555 + 0.0026 × 1,802 – 2 × 0.0560)
= Exp(4.2669)
= $71.30

Description

a = 9.7033

b = -0.0030

s = 0.0135

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0030) – 1
