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 QCOM 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: September 7, 2023
End date: April 15, 2024
a = 0.6773
b = 0.0025
s = 0.0385
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0025) – 1
= 147.90%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0385) – 1
= 16.67%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,098)
= Exp(a + b × X1,098 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,592 + 2 × s)
= Exp(0.6773 + 0.0025 × 1,592 + 2 × 0.0385)
= Exp(4.7141)
= $111.51
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,098)
= Exp(a + b × X1,098 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,592 – 2 × s)
= Exp(0.6773 + 0.0025 × 1,592 – 2 × 0.0385)
= Exp(4.5599)
= $95.58
