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 LESL 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 17, 2021
End date: December 13, 2023

a = 4.1155

b = -0.0021

s = 0.1454

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0021) – 1
= -53.30%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1454) – 1
= 78.91%

December 17, 2021 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y286)
= Exp(a + b × X286 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 414 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.1155 + -0.0021 × 414 + 2 × 0.1454)
= Exp(3.5427)
= $34.56

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y286)
= Exp(a + b × X286 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 414 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.1155 + -0.0021 × 414 – 2 × 0.1454)
= Exp(2.9610)
= $19.32

December 13, 2023 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y785)
= Exp(a + b × X785 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,140 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.1155 + -0.0021 × 1,140 + 2 × 0.1454)
= Exp(2.0281)
= $7.60

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y785)
= Exp(a + b × X785 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,140 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.1155 + -0.0021 × 1,140 – 2 × 0.1454)
= Exp(1.4464)
= $4.25

a = 0.7164

b = 0.0010

s = 0.1301

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0010) – 1
= 43.48%

Price channel spread:

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y679)
= Exp(a + b × X679 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 988 + 2 × s)
= Exp(0.7164 + 0.0010 × 988 + 2 × 0.1301)
= Exp(1.9538)
= $7.06

Bottom border of price channel:
