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 MAS 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: September 14, 2022
End date: July 25, 2024

a = 2.9017

b = 0.0008

s = 0.0718

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0008) – 1
= 32.39%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0718) – 1
= 33.29%

September 14, 2022 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y790)
= Exp(a + b × X790 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,146 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.9017 + 0.0008 × 1,146 + 2 × 0.0718)
= Exp(3.9263)
= $50.72

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y790)
= Exp(a + b × X790 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,146 – 2 × s)
= Exp(2.9017 + 0.0008 × 1,146 – 2 × 0.0718)
= Exp(3.6390)
= $38.05

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.9017 + 0.0008 × 1,826 + 2 × 0.0718)
= Exp(4.4491)
= $85.55

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 – 2 × s)
= Exp(2.9017 + 0.0008 × 1,826 – 2 × 0.0718)
= Exp(4.1617)
= $64.18

a = 5.6050

b = -0.0008

s = 0.0373

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0008) – 1
= -24.37%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0373) – 1
= 16.08%

February 14, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,146)
= Exp(a + b × X1,146 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,664 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.6050 + -0.0008 × 1,664 + 2 × 0.0373)
= Exp(4.4063)
= $81.97

Bottom border of price channel:
