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 WFC 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: March 9, 2023
End date: February 20, 2026

a = 2.8638

b = 0.0009

s = 0.0717

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0009) – 1
= 40.54%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0717) – 1
= 33.22%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y515)
= Exp(a + b × X515 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 745 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.8638 + 0.0009 × 745 + 2 × 0.0717)
= Exp(3.7018)
= $40.52

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y515)
= Exp(a + b × X515 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 745 – 2 × s)
= Exp(2.8638 + 0.0009 × 745 – 2 × 0.0717)
= Exp(3.4149)
= $30.42
