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 THG 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: April 6, 2021
End date: January 18, 2024

a = 4.9704

b = -0.0001

s = 0.0693

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0001) – 1
= -4.63%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0693) – 1
= 31.94%

April 6, 2021 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y426)
= Exp(a + b × X426 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 620 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9704 + -0.0001 × 620 + 2 × 0.0693)
= Exp(5.0285)
= $152.71

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y426)
= Exp(a + b × X426 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 620 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9704 + -0.0001 × 620 – 2 × 0.0693)
= Exp(4.7514)
= $115.74

January 18, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,127)
= Exp(a + b × X1,127 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,637 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9704 + -0.0001 × 1,637 + 2 × 0.0693)
= Exp(4.8966)
= $133.83

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,127)
= Exp(a + b × X1,127 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,637 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9704 + -0.0001 × 1,637 – 2 × 0.0693)
= Exp(4.6194)
= $101.43

Description

a = 3.6346

b = 0.0007

s = 0.0362

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0007) – 1
= 30.01%

Price channel spread:
