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 DXC 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 13, 2021
End date: July 26, 2024

a = 4.0589

b = -0.0006

s = 0.0807

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0006) – 1
= -20.19%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0807) – 1
= 38.10%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y452)
= Exp(a + b × X452 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 654 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.0589 + -0.0006 × 654 + 2 × 0.0807)
= Exp(3.8162)
= $45.43

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y452)
= Exp(a + b × X452 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 654 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.0589 + -0.0006 × 654 – 2 × 0.0807)
= Exp(3.4934)
= $32.90

= Exp(a + b × 1,824 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.0589 + -0.0006 × 1,824 + 2 × 0.0807)
= Exp(3.0933)
= $22.05

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,824 – 2 × s)
