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 ICUI 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: April 10, 2024
End date: October 25, 2024

a = -1.5366

b = 0.0038

s = 0.0522

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0038) – 1
= 295.75%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0522) – 1
= 23.22%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,102)
= Exp(a + b × X1,102 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,603 + 2 × s)
= Exp(-1.5366 + 0.0038 × 1,603 + 2 × 0.0522)
= Exp(4.6091)
= $100.40

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,102)
= Exp(a + b × X1,102 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,603 – 2 × s)
= Exp(-1.5366 + 0.0038 × 1,603 – 2 × 0.0522)
= Exp(4.4003)
= $81.48

October 25, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,240)
= Exp(a + b × X1,240 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,801 + 2 × s)
= Exp(-1.5366 + 0.0038 × 1,801 + 2 × 0.0522)
= Exp(5.3554)
= $211.74

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,240)
= Exp(a + b × X1,240 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,801 – 2 × s)
= Exp(-1.5366 + 0.0038 × 1,801 – 2 × 0.0522)
= Exp(5.1465)
= $171.83
