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 TSLA 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: December 7, 2020
End date: October 23, 2024
a = 5.6360
b = -0.0002
s = 0.2119
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0002) – 1
= -7.13%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.2119) – 1
= 133.44%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y171)
= Exp(a + b × X171 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 248 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.6360 + -0.0002 × 248 + 2 × 0.2119)
= Exp(6.0096)
= $407.34
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y171)
= Exp(a + b × X171 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 248 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.6360 + -0.0002 × 248 – 2 × 0.2119)
= Exp(5.1619)
= $174.50
