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 HP 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 7, 2022
End date: April 3, 2025

a = 3.8925

b = -0.0002

s = 0.1102

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0002) – 1
= -8.56%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1102) – 1
= 55.41%

March 7, 2022 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y474)
= Exp(a + b × X474 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 686 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.8925 + -0.0002 × 686 + 2 × 0.1102)
= Exp(3.9448)
= $51.67

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y474)
= Exp(a + b × X474 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 686 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.8925 + -0.0002 × 686 – 2 × 0.1102)
= Exp(3.5039)
= $33.24

April 3, 2025 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,246)
= Exp(a + b × X1,246 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,809 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.8925 + -0.0002 × 1,809 + 2 × 0.1102)
= Exp(3.6695)
= $39.23

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,246)
= Exp(a + b × X1,246 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,809 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.8925 + -0.0002 × 1,809 – 2 × 0.1102)
= Exp(3.2286)
= $25.24

a = 5.2869

b = -0.0011

s = 0.0974

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0011) – 1
