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 XYL 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: April 26, 2024
End date: May 7, 2025

a = 5.6216

b = -0.0005

s = 0.0426

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0005) – 1
= -16.43%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0426) – 1
= 18.59%

April 26, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y959)
= Exp(a + b × X959 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,390 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.6216 + -0.0005 × 1,390 + 2 × 0.0426)
= Exp(5.0235)
= $151.94

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y959)
= Exp(a + b × X959 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,390 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.6216 + -0.0005 × 1,390 – 2 × 0.0426)
= Exp(4.8530)
= $128.12

May 7, 2025 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,216)
= Exp(a + b × X1,216 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,766 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.6216 + -0.0005 × 1,766 + 2 × 0.0426)
= Exp(4.8386)
= $126.29

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,216)
= Exp(a + b × X1,216 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,766 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.6216 + -0.0005 × 1,766 – 2 × 0.0426)
= Exp(4.6681)
= $106.50
