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 AEO 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: May 31, 2022
End date: October 21, 2024

a = 1.4311

b = 0.0010

s = 0.1348

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0010) – 1
= 42.48%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1348) – 1
= 71.49%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y634)
= Exp(a + b × X634 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 922 + 2 × s)
= Exp(1.4311 + 0.0010 × 922 + 2 × 0.1348)
= Exp(2.5951)
= $13.40

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y634)
= Exp(a + b × X634 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 922 – 2 × s)
= Exp(1.4311 + 0.0010 × 922 – 2 × 0.1348)
= Exp(2.0558)
= $7.81

= Exp(a + b × X1,235 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,796 + 2 × s)
= Exp(1.4311 + 0.0010 × 1,796 + 2 × 0.1348)
= Exp(3.4430)
= $31.28

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,235)
= Exp(a + b × X1,235 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,796 – 2 × s)
