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 V 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: August 26, 2022
End date: April 30, 2024

a = 4.4983

b = 0.0006

s = 0.0374

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0006) – 1
= 25.74%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0374) – 1
= 16.14%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y835)
= Exp(a + b × X835 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,208 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.4983 + 0.0006 × 1,208 + 2 × 0.0374)
= Exp(5.3312)
= $206.68

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y835)
= Exp(a + b × X835 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,208 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.4983 + 0.0006 × 1,208 – 2 × 0.0374)
= Exp(5.1815)
= $177.95

= Exp(5.7158)
= $303.64

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,255)
= Exp(a + b × X1,255 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,821 – 2 × s)
