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 SXT 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 31, 2023
End date: December 16, 2024
a = 3.1374
b = 0.0008
s = 0.0486
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0008) – 1
= 32.81%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0486) – 1
= 21.47%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y768)
= Exp(a + b × X768 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,116 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.1374 + 0.0008 × 1,116 + 2 × 0.0486)
= Exp(4.1022)
= $60.47
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y768)
= Exp(a + b × X768 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,116 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.1374 + 0.0008 × 1,116 – 2 × 0.0486)
= Exp(3.9077)
= $49.78

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,116)
= Exp(a + b × X1,116 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,620 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.1374 + 0.0008 × 1,620 + 2 × 0.0486)
= Exp(4.4939)
= $89.47
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,116)
= Exp(a + b × X1,116 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,620 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.1374 + 0.0008 × 1,620 – 2 × 0.0486)
= Exp(4.2995)
