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 FCN 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: September 20, 2024
End date: November 19, 2024

a = 10.9299

b = -0.0031

s = 0.0352

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0031) – 1
= -67.71%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0352) – 1
= 15.12%

September 20, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,215)
= Exp(a + b × X1,215 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,766 + 2 × s)
= Exp(10.9299 + -0.0031 × 1,766 + 2 × 0.0352)
= Exp(5.5307)
= $252.31

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,215)
= Exp(a + b × X1,215 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,766 – 2 × s)
= Exp(10.9299 + -0.0031 × 1,766 – 2 × 0.0352)
= Exp(5.3899)
= $219.18

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 + 2 × s)
= Exp(10.9299 + -0.0031 × 1,826 + 2 × 0.0352)
= Exp(5.3448)
= $209.52

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 – 2 × s)
= Exp(10.9299 + -0.0031 × 1,826 – 2 × 0.0352)
= Exp(5.2041)
= $182.01
