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 ITW 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: December 14, 2023
End date: July 25, 2024

a = 6.1765

b = -0.0004

s = 0.0258

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0004) – 1
= -13.00%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0258) – 1
= 10.88%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,105)
= Exp(a + b × X1,105 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,602 + 2 × s)
= Exp(6.1765 + -0.0004 × 1,602 + 2 × 0.0258)
= Exp(5.6171)
= $275.08

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,105)
= Exp(a + b × X1,105 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,602 – 2 × s)
= Exp(6.1765 + -0.0004 × 1,602 – 2 × 0.0258)
= Exp(5.5138)
= $248.09

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(6.1765 + -0.0004 × 1,826 + 2 × 0.0258)
= Exp(5.5316)
= $252.56

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 – 2 × s)
= Exp(6.1765 + -0.0004 × 1,826 – 2 × 0.0258)
= Exp(5.4284)
= $227.78
