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 VCEL 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: January 7, 2021
End date: January 11, 2023
a = 4.9213
b = -0.0013
s = 0.1467
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0013) – 1
= -38.57%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1467) – 1
= 79.83%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y420)
= Exp(a + b × X420 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 609 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9213 + -0.0013 × 609 + 2 × 0.1467)
= Exp(4.4016)
= $81.58
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y420)
= Exp(a + b × X420 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 609 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9213 + -0.0013 × 609 – 2 × 0.1467)
= Exp(3.8148)
= $45.37

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y926)
= Exp(a + b × X926 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,343 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9213 + -0.0013 × 1,343 + 2 × 0.1467)
= Exp(3.4216)
= $30.62
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y926)
= Exp(a + b × X926 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,343 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9213 + -0.0013 × 1,343 – 2 × 0.1467)
= Exp(2.8348)
