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 FTRE 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 14, 2024
End date: May 8, 2024

a = 4.1956

b = -0.0020

s = 0.0242

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0020) – 1
= -51.70%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0242) – 1
= 10.18%

March 14, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y173)
= Exp(a + b × X173 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 251 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.1956 + -0.0020 × 251 + 2 × 0.0242)
= Exp(3.7436)
= $42.25

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y173)
= Exp(a + b × X173 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 251 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.1956 + -0.0020 × 251 – 2 × 0.0242)
= Exp(3.6467)
= $38.35

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y211)
= Exp(a + b × X211 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 306 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.1956 + -0.0020 × 306 + 2 × 0.0242)
= Exp(3.6339)
= $37.86

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y211)
= Exp(a + b × X211 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 306 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.1956 + -0.0020 × 306 – 2 × 0.0242)
= Exp(3.5370)
= $34.36

a = 3.5109

b = 0.0003

s = 0.0179

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0003) – 1
= 11.36%
