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 URI 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: April 22, 2022
End date: December 17, 2024

a = 4.9860

b = 0.0013

s = 0.1006

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0013) – 1
= 58.57%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1006) – 1
= 49.56%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y287)
= Exp(a + b × X287 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 414 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9860 + 0.0013 × 414 + 2 × 0.1006)
= Exp(5.7101)
= $301.91

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y287)
= Exp(a + b × X287 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 414 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9860 + 0.0013 × 414 – 2 × 0.1006)
= Exp(5.3076)
= $201.87

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y954)
= Exp(a + b × X954 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,384 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9860 + 0.0013 × 1,384 + 2 × 0.1006)
= Exp(6.9353)
= $1,027.94

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y954)
= Exp(a + b × X954 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,384 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9860 + 0.0013 × 1,384 – 2 × 0.1006)
= Exp(6.5328)
