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 KMI 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: March 11, 2020
End date: February 17, 2023

a = 2.2086

b = 0.0005

s = 0.0819

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0005) – 1
= 19.31%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0819) – 1
= 38.77%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y211)
= Exp(a + b × X211 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 307 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.2086 + 0.0005 × 307 + 2 × 0.0819)
= Exp(2.5209)
= $12.44

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y211)
= Exp(a + b × X211 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 307 – 2 × s)
= Exp(2.2086 + 0.0005 × 307 – 2 × 0.0819)
= Exp(2.1933)
= $8.96

February 17, 2023 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y952)
= Exp(a + b × X952 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,380 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.2086 + 0.0005 × 1,380 + 2 × 0.0819)
= Exp(3.0399)
= $20.90

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y952)
= Exp(a + b × X952 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,380 – 2 × s)
= Exp(2.2086 + 0.0005 × 1,380 – 2 × 0.0819)
= Exp(2.7122)
= $15.06

a = 2.5399

b = 0.0002

s = 0.0513

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0002) – 1
= 6.50%

Price channel spread:
