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 HIW 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 26, 2023
End date: November 12, 2024

a = 0.4008

b = 0.0017

s = 0.0520

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0017) – 1
= 87.85%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0520) – 1
= 23.12%

September 26, 2023 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y967)
= Exp(a + b × X967 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,406 + 2 × s)
= Exp(0.4008 + 0.0017 × 1,406 + 2 × 0.0520)
= Exp(2.9333)
= $18.79

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y967)
= Exp(a + b × X967 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,406 – 2 × s)
= Exp(0.4008 + 0.0017 × 1,406 – 2 × 0.0520)
= Exp(2.7253)
= $15.26

Exp(Y1,252)
= Exp(a + b × X1,252 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,819 + 2 × s)
= Exp(0.4008 + 0.0017 × 1,819 + 2 × 0.0520)
= Exp(3.6467)
= $38.35

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,252)
= Exp(a + b × X1,252 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,819 – 2 × s)
