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 VSAT 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 6, 2023
End date: July 24, 2024

a = 6.0754

b = -0.0019

s = 0.1691

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0019) – 1
= -49.45%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1691) – 1
= 96.71%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y868)
= Exp(a + b × X868 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,257 + 2 × s)
= Exp(6.0754 + -0.0019 × 1,257 + 2 × 0.1691)
= Exp(4.0644)
= $58.23

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y868)
= Exp(a + b × X868 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,257 – 2 × s)
= Exp(6.0754 + -0.0019 × 1,257 – 2 × 0.1691)
= Exp(3.3878)
= $29.60

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,255)
= Exp(a + b × X1,255 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,822 + 2 × s)
= Exp(6.0754 + -0.0019 × 1,822 + 2 × 0.1691)
= Exp(3.0084)
= $20.25

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,255)
= Exp(a + b × X1,255 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,822 – 2 × s)
