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 LTC 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, 2023
End date: December 9, 2025

a = 3.0393

b = 0.0003

s = 0.0419

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0003) – 1
= 11.93%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0419) – 1
= 18.23%

April 28, 2023 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y589)
= Exp(a + b × X589 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 856 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.0393 + 0.0003 × 856 + 2 × 0.0419)
= Exp(3.3874)
= $29.59

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y589)
= Exp(a + b × X589 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 856 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.0393 + 0.0003 × 856 – 2 × 0.0419)
= Exp(3.2200)
= $25.03

= Exp(3.0393 + 0.0003 × 1,812 + 2 × 0.0419)
= Exp(3.6827)
= $39.75

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,245)
= Exp(a + b × X1,245 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,812 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.0393 + 0.0003 × 1,812 – 2 × 0.0419)
= Exp(3.5152)
