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 HSIC 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: February 15, 2022
End date: November 3, 2022

a = 5.2310

b = -0.0011

s = 0.0369

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0011) – 1
= -32.99%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0369) – 1
= 15.92%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y456)
= Exp(a + b × X456 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 659 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.2310 + -0.0011 × 659 + 2 × 0.0369)
= Exp(4.5819)
= $97.70

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y456)
= Exp(a + b × X456 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 659 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.2310 + -0.0011 × 659 – 2 × 0.0369)
= Exp(4.4342)
= $84.29

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y637)
= Exp(a + b × X637 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 920 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.2310 + -0.0011 × 920 + 2 × 0.0369)
= Exp(4.2956)
= $73.38

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y637)
= Exp(a + b × X637 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 920 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.2310 + -0.0011 × 920 – 2 × 0.0369)
= Exp(4.1479)
= $63.30

a = 4.5013

b = -0.0001

s = 0.0632

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0001) – 1
