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 RC 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: July 9, 2024
End date: February 26, 2026

a = 4.9190

b = -0.0023

s = 0.1206

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0023) – 1
= -56.15%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1206) – 1
= 62.01%

July 9, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y844)
= Exp(a + b × X844 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,226 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9190 + -0.0023 × 1,226 + 2 × 0.1206)
= Exp(2.3911)
= $10.93

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y844)
= Exp(a + b × X844 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,226 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9190 + -0.0023 × 1,226 – 2 × 0.1206)
= Exp(1.9086)
= $6.74

February 26, 2026 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,254)
= Exp(a + b × X1,254 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,823 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9190 + -0.0023 × 1,823 + 2 × 0.1206)
= Exp(1.0427)
= $2.84

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,254)
= Exp(a + b × X1,254 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,823 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9190 + -0.0023 × 1,823 – 2 × 0.1206)
= Exp(0.5602)
= $1.75
