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 FUL 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: March 12, 2021
End date: November 20, 2024

a = 4.0447

b = 0.0002

s = 0.0689

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0002) – 1
= 6.42%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0689) – 1
= 31.75%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y327)
= Exp(a + b × X327 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 477 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.0447 + 0.0002 × 477 + 2 × 0.0689)
= Exp(4.2639)
= $71.08

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y327)
= Exp(a + b × X327 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 477 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.0447 + 0.0002 × 477 – 2 × 0.0689)
= Exp(3.9881)
= $53.95
