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 GNRC 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: February 11, 2021
End date: March 25, 2024

a = 7.0548

b = -0.0015

s = 0.2526

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0015) – 1
= -41.51%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.2526) – 1
= 174.63%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y443)
= Exp(a + b × X443 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 643 + 2 × s)
= Exp(7.0548 + -0.0015 × 643 + 2 × 0.2526)
= Exp(6.6152)
= $746.36

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y443)
= Exp(a + b × X443 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 643 – 2 × s)
= Exp(7.0548 + -0.0015 × 643 – 2 × 0.2526)
= Exp(5.6050)
= $271.77

March 25, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,226)
= Exp(a + b × X1,226 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,781 + 2 × s)
= Exp(7.0548 + -0.0015 × 1,781 + 2 × 0.2526)
= Exp(4.9432)
= $140.22

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,226)
= Exp(a + b × X1,226 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,781 – 2 × s)
= Exp(7.0548 + -0.0015 × 1,781 – 2 × 0.2526)
= Exp(3.9330)
= $51.06

a = 4.3504

b = 0.0003

s = 0.1095

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0003) – 1
= 9.75%

Price channel spread:
