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 CRM 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

End date: May 24, 2024

a = 3.8384

b = 0.0012

s = 0.0835

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0012) – 1
= 57.20%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0835) – 1
= 39.64%

August 26, 2022 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y605)
= Exp(a + b × X605 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 876 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.8384 + 0.0012 × 876 + 2 × 0.0835)
= Exp(5.0911)
= $162.57

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y605)
= Exp(a + b × X605 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 876 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.8384 + 0.0012 × 876 – 2 × 0.0835)
= Exp(4.7572)
= $116.42

May 24, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,043)
= Exp(a + b × X1,043 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,513 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.8384 + 0.0012 × 1,513 + 2 × 0.0835)
= Exp(5.8806)
= $358.01

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,043)
= Exp(a + b × X1,043 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,513 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.8384 + 0.0012 × 1,513 – 2 × 0.0835)
= Exp(5.5467)
= $256.38
