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 MIDD 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 1, 2021
End date: July 26, 2024

a = 5.3369

b = -0.0003

s = 0.0916

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0003) – 1
= -9.33%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0916) – 1
= 44.25%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y400)
= Exp(a + b × X400 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 581 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.3369 + -0.0003 × 581 + 2 × 0.0916)
= Exp(5.3641)
= $213.61

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y400)
= Exp(a + b × X400 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 581 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.3369 + -0.0003 × 581 – 2 × 0.0916)
= Exp(4.9977)
= $148.08

= Exp(5.3369 + -0.0003 × 1,824 + 2 × 0.0916)
= Exp(5.0304)
= $153.00

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,824 – 2 × s)
