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 PNC 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: March 15, 2023
End date: March 3, 2025

a = 3.6315

b = 0.0010

s = 0.0624

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0010) – 1
= 41.59%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0624) – 1
= 28.36%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y723)
= Exp(a + b × X723 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,049 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.6315 + 0.0010 × 1,049 + 2 × 0.0624)
= Exp(4.7558)
= $116.26

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y723)
= Exp(a + b × X723 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,049 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.6315 + 0.0010 × 1,049 – 2 × 0.0624)
= Exp(4.5062)
= $90.58

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,215)
= Exp(a + b × X1,215 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,768 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.6315 + 0.0010 × 1,768 + 2 × 0.0624)
= Exp(5.4409)
= $230.65

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,215)
= Exp(a + b × X1,215 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,768 – 2 × s)
