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 PRDO 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 3, 2021
End date: July 26, 2024

a = 1.6802

b = 0.0007

s = 0.1053

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0007) – 1
= 29.90%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1053) – 1
= 52.38%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y531)
= Exp(a + b × X531 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 767 + 2 × s)
= Exp(1.6802 + 0.0007 × 767 + 2 × 0.1053)
= Exp(2.4406)
= $11.48

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y531)
= Exp(a + b × X531 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 767 – 2 × s)
= Exp(1.6802 + 0.0007 × 767 – 2 × 0.1053)
= Exp(2.0194)
= $7.53
