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 SYY 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: February 22, 2021
End date: July 25, 2024

a = 4.3200

b = 0.0000

s = 0.0605

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0000) – 1
= -0.60%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0605) – 1
= 27.39%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y396)
= Exp(a + b × X396 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 577 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.3200 + 0.0000 × 577 + 2 × 0.0605)
= Exp(4.4316)
= $84.06

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y396)
= Exp(a + b × X396 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 577 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.3200 + 0.0000 × 577 – 2 × 0.0605)
= Exp(4.1895)
= $65.99

= Exp(4.4110)
= $82.35

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,257)
