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 DHR 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: June 17, 2021
End date: December 12, 2023

a = 5.7536

b = -0.0003

s = 0.0611

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0003) – 1
= -10.02%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0611) – 1
= 27.66%

June 17, 2021 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y394)
= Exp(a + b × X394 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 574 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.7536 + -0.0003 × 574 + 2 × 0.0611)
= Exp(5.7097)
= $301.78

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y394)
= Exp(a + b × X394 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 574 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.7536 + -0.0003 × 574 – 2 × 0.0611)
= Exp(5.4655)
= $236.39

December 12, 2023 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,020)
= Exp(a + b × X1,020 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,482 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.7536 + -0.0003 × 1,482 + 2 × 0.0611)
= Exp(5.4471)
= $232.07

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,020)
= Exp(a + b × X1,020 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,482 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.7536 + -0.0003 × 1,482 – 2 × 0.0611)
= Exp(5.2029)
= $181.79

Description

s = 0.0513

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0005) – 1
= 19.47%
