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 PG 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: August 2, 2024
End date: January 29, 2026

a = 5.4843

b = -0.0003

s = 0.0278

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0003) – 1
= -9.75%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0278) – 1
= 11.75%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y857)
= Exp(a + b × X857 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,243 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.4843 + -0.0003 × 1,243 + 2 × 0.0278)
= Exp(5.1903)
= $179.52

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y857)
= Exp(a + b × X857 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,243 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.4843 + -0.0003 × 1,243 – 2 × 0.0278)
= Exp(5.0793)
= $160.65
