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 IFF 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

End date: October 24, 2024
a = 2.4607
b = 0.0012
s = 0.0387
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0012) – 1
= 57.10%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0387) – 1
= 16.74%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y933)
= Exp(a + b × X933 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,357 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.4607 + 0.0012 × 1,357 + 2 × 0.0387)
= Exp(4.2175)
= $67.86
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y933)
= Exp(a + b × X933 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,357 – 2 × s)
= Exp(2.4607 + 0.0012 × 1,357 – 2 × 0.0387)
= Exp(4.0626)
= $58.13

= Exp(4.7657)
= $117.41
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,239)
= Exp(a + b × X1,239 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,800 – 2 × s)
