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 ECL 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: September 22, 2022
End date: May 9, 2024
a = 3.9583
b = 0.0008
s = 0.0517
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0008) – 1
= 33.26%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0517) – 1
= 22.97%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y849)
= Exp(a + b × X849 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,231 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.9583 + 0.0008 × 1,231 + 2 × 0.0517)
= Exp(5.0300)
= $152.93
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y849)
= Exp(a + b × X849 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,231 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.9583 + 0.0008 × 1,231 – 2 × 0.0517)
= Exp(4.8232)
= $124.36

= Exp(a + b × X1,258 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.9583 + 0.0008 × 1,826 + 2 × 0.0517)
= Exp(5.4980)
= $244.20
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,258)
= Exp(a + b × X1,258 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.9583 + 0.0008 × 1,826 – 2 × 0.0517)
= Exp(5.2912)
= $198.58
