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 WING 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: February 22, 2024
End date: December 10, 2025

a = 6.7527

b = -0.0007

s = 0.1476

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0007) – 1
= -21.60%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1476) – 1
= 80.47%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y802)
= Exp(a + b × X802 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,168 + 2 × s)
= Exp(6.7527 + -0.0007 × 1,168 + 2 × 0.1476)
= Exp(6.2692)
= $528.06

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y802)
= Exp(a + b × X802 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,168 – 2 × s)
= Exp(6.7527 + -0.0007 × 1,168 – 2 × 0.1476)
= Exp(5.6788)
= $292.59

= Exp(5.8312)
= $340.76

Bottom border of price channel:
