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 DFIN 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 26, 2021
End date: November 20, 2024
a = 3.0437
b = 0.0006
s = 0.1260
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0006) – 1
= 26.05%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1260) – 1
= 65.51%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y317)
= Exp(a + b × X317 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 463 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.0437 + 0.0006 × 463 + 2 × 0.1260)
= Exp(3.5892)
= $36.21
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y317)
= Exp(a + b × X317 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 463 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.0437 + 0.0006 × 463 – 2 × 0.1260)
= Exp(3.0854)
= $21.88

= Exp(4.4536)
= $85.94
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.0437 + 0.0006 × 1,826 – 2 × 0.1260)
= Exp(3.9498)
