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 NFLX 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

Start date: April 21, 2022
End date: April 26, 2024

a = 3.4858

b = 0.0016

s = 0.0940

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0016) – 1
= 80.35%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0940) – 1
= 45.67%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y752)
= Exp(a + b × X752 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,088 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.4858 + 0.0016 × 1,088 + 2 × 0.0940)
= Exp(5.4317)
= $228.54

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y752)
= Exp(a + b × X752 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,088 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.4858 + 0.0016 × 1,088 – 2 × 0.0940)
= Exp(5.0555)
= $156.88
