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 SMG 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: August 4, 2023
End date: June 28, 2024
a = 1.9595
b = 0.0013
s = 0.0752
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0013) – 1
= 59.99%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0752) – 1
= 35.08%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,013)
= Exp(a + b × X1,013 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,470 + 2 × s)
= Exp(1.9595 + 0.0013 × 1,470 + 2 × 0.0752)
= Exp(4.0025)
= $54.73
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,013)
= Exp(a + b × X1,013 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,470 – 2 × s)
= Exp(1.9595 + 0.0013 × 1,470 – 2 × 0.0752)
= Exp(3.7017)
= $40.52

= Exp(1.9595 + 0.0013 × 1,799 + 2 × 0.0752)
= Exp(4.4261)
= $83.60
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,239)
= Exp(a + b × X1,239 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,799 – 2 × s)
= Exp(1.9595 + 0.0013 × 1,799 – 2 × 0.0752)
