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 ROK 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: June 2, 2023
End date: November 5, 2024

a = 6.0418

b = -0.0003

s = 0.0510

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0003) – 1
= -10.42%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0510) – 1
= 22.63%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y778)
= Exp(a + b × X778 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,128 + 2 × s)
= Exp(6.0418 + -0.0003 × 1,128 + 2 × 0.0510)
= Exp(5.8038)
= $331.57

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y778)
= Exp(a + b × X778 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,128 – 2 × s)
= Exp(6.0418 + -0.0003 × 1,128 – 2 × 0.0510)
= Exp(5.5998)
= $270.38

November 5, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,137)
= Exp(a + b × X1,137 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,650 + 2 × s)
= Exp(6.0418 + -0.0003 × 1,650 + 2 × 0.0510)
= Exp(5.6465)
= $283.30

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,137)
= Exp(a + b × X1,137 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,650 – 2 × s)
= Exp(6.0418 + -0.0003 × 1,650 – 2 × 0.0510)
= Exp(5.4425)
= $231.02

a = 5.5998

b = 0.0000

s = 0.0507

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0000) – 1
= 0.25%

Price channel spread:
