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 GM 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 3, 2023
End date: July 22, 2024

a = 0.2610

b = 0.0020

s = 0.0556

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0020) – 1
= 108.99%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0556) – 1
= 24.92%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,054)
= Exp(a + b × X1,054 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,530 + 2 × s)
= Exp(0.2610 + 0.0020 × 1,530 + 2 × 0.0556)
= Exp(3.4622)
= $31.89

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,054)
= Exp(a + b × X1,054 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,530 – 2 × s)

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,254)
= Exp(a + b × X1,254 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,823 + 2 × s)
= Exp(0.2610 + 0.0020 × 1,823 + 2 × 0.0556)
= Exp(4.0539)
= $57.62

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,254)
= Exp(a + b × X1,254 – 2 × s)
