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 X 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

End date: March 13, 2025

a = 4.5377

b = -0.0006

s = 0.0811

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0006) – 1
= -18.55%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0811) – 1
= 38.31%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y912)
= Exp(a + b × X912 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,322 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.5377 + -0.0006 × 1,322 + 2 × 0.0811)
= Exp(3.9567)
= $52.29

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y912)
= Exp(a + b × X912 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,322 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.5377 + -0.0006 × 1,322 – 2 × 0.0811)
= Exp(3.6324)
= $37.80

March 13, 2025 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,223)
= Exp(a + b × X1,223 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,778 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.5377 + -0.0006 × 1,778 + 2 × 0.0811)
= Exp(3.7004)
= $40.46

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,223)
= Exp(a + b × X1,223 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,778 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.5377 + -0.0006 × 1,778 – 2 × 0.0811)
= Exp(3.3761)
= $29.26

a = -0.3150

b = 0.0022

s = 0.0452

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0022) – 1

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,163)
= Exp(a + b × X1,163 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,687 + 2 × s)
= Exp(-0.3150 + 0.0022 × 1,687 + 2 × 0.0452)
= Exp(3.5611)
= $35.20

Bottom border of price channel:
