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 FDP 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: January 31, 2023
End date: December 12, 2023

a = 4.2652

b = -0.0007

s = 0.0385

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0007) – 1
= -22.66%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0385) – 1
= 16.64%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y884)
= Exp(a + b × X884 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,282 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.2652 + -0.0007 × 1,282 + 2 × 0.0385)
= Exp(3.4398)
= $31.18

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y884)
= Exp(a + b × X884 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,282 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.2652 + -0.0007 × 1,282 – 2 × 0.0385)
= Exp(3.2859)
= $26.73

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,102)
= Exp(a + b × X1,102 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,597 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.2652 + -0.0007 × 1,597 + 2 × 0.0385)
= Exp(3.2181)
= $24.98

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,102)
= Exp(a + b × X1,102 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,597 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.2652 + -0.0007 × 1,597 – 2 × 0.0385)
= Exp(3.0642)
= $21.42
