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 FANG 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: March 9, 2020
End date: June 16, 2022

a = 2.5142

b = 0.0022

s = 0.1868

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0022) – 1
= 120.29%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1868) – 1
= 111.13%

March 9, 2020 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y208)
= Exp(a + b × X208 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 304 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.5142 + 0.0022 × 304 + 2 × 0.1868)
= Exp(3.5456)
= $34.66

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y208)
= Exp(a + b × X208 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 304 – 2 × s)
= Exp(2.5142 + 0.0022 × 304 – 2 × 0.1868)
= Exp(2.7983)
= $16.42

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y782)
= Exp(a + b × X782 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,133 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.5142 + 0.0022 × 1,133 + 2 × 0.1868)
= Exp(5.3393)
= $208.38

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y782)
= Exp(a + b × X782 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,133 – 2 × s)
= Exp(2.5142 + 0.0022 × 1,133 – 2 × 0.1868)
= Exp(4.5920)
= $98.70

a = 4.1437

b = 0.0005

s = 0.0800

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0005) – 1

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y604)
= Exp(a + b × X604 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 875 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.1437 + 0.0005 × 875 + 2 × 0.0800)
= Exp(4.7668)
= $117.54

Bottom border of price channel:
