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 GPRE 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: June 30, 2023
End date: July 25, 2024

a = 6.4714

b = -0.0020

s = 0.0681

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0020) – 1
= -52.22%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0681) – 1
= 31.31%

June 30, 2023 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y989)
= Exp(a + b × X989 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,435 + 2 × s)
= Exp(6.4714 + -0.0020 × 1,435 + 2 × 0.0681)
= Exp(3.7036)
= $40.59

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y989)
= Exp(a + b × X989 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,435 – 2 × s)
= Exp(6.4714 + -0.0020 × 1,435 – 2 × 0.0681)
= Exp(3.4312)
= $30.91

July 25, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 + 2 × s)
= Exp(6.4714 + -0.0020 × 1,826 + 2 × 0.0681)
= Exp(2.9124)
= $18.40

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 – 2 × s)
= Exp(6.4714 + -0.0020 × 1,826 – 2 × 0.0681)
= Exp(2.6400)
= $14.01

a = 9.5982

b = -0.0038

s = 0.0615

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0038) – 1
