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 IPG 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: April 28, 2021
End date: July 25, 2024

a = 3.4290

b = 0.0000

s = 0.0967

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0000) – 1
= 0.22%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0967) – 1
= 47.21%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y442)
= Exp(a + b × X442 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 642 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.4290 + 0.0000 × 642 + 2 × 0.0967)
= Exp(3.6262)
= $37.57

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y442)
= Exp(a + b × X442 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 642 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.4290 + 0.0000 × 642 – 2 × 0.0967)
= Exp(3.2395)
= $25.52
