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 FTNT 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: August 12, 2024
a = 4.0367
b = 0.0001
s = 0.1133
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0001) – 1
= 2.12%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1133) – 1
= 57.33%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y288)
= Exp(a + b × X288 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 416 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.0367 + 0.0001 × 416 + 2 × 0.1133)
= Exp(4.2872)
= $72.76
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y288)
= Exp(a + b × X288 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 416 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.0367 + 0.0001 × 416 – 2 × 0.1133)
= Exp(3.8340)
= $46.25

= Exp(4.3532)
= $77.73
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,080)
= Exp(a + b × X1,080 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,568 – 2 × s)
