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 FIS 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: October 6, 2023
End date: April 24, 2024

a = 0.6197

b = 0.0020

s = 0.0345

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0020) – 1
= 109.64%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0345) – 1
= 14.81%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,117)
= Exp(a + b × X1,117 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,619 + 2 × s)
= Exp(0.6197 + 0.0020 × 1,619 + 2 × 0.0345)
= Exp(3.9721)
= $53.09

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,117)
= Exp(a + b × X1,117 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,619 – 2 × s)
= Exp(0.6197 + 0.0020 × 1,619 – 2 × 0.0345)
= Exp(3.8340)
= $46.25

April 24, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,254)
= Exp(a + b × X1,254 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,820 + 2 × s)
= Exp(0.6197 + 0.0020 × 1,820 + 2 × 0.0345)
= Exp(4.3797)
= $79.81

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,254)
= Exp(a + b × X1,254 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,820 – 2 × s)
= Exp(0.6197 + 0.0020 × 1,820 – 2 × 0.0345)
= Exp(4.2416)
= $69.52
