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 ISRG 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: June 3, 2022
End date: November 19, 2024

a = 4.3452

b = 0.0010

s = 0.0848

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0010) – 1
= 44.95%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0848) – 1
= 40.37%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y638)
= Exp(a + b × X638 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 926 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.3452 + 0.0010 × 926 + 2 × 0.0848)
= Exp(5.4565)
= $234.28

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y638)
= Exp(a + b × X638 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 926 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.3452 + 0.0010 × 926 – 2 × 0.0848)
= Exp(5.1174)
= $166.90
