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 ITW 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: August 1, 2024
End date: November 19, 2024

a = 3.3817

b = 0.0012

s = 0.0155

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0012) – 1
= 55.90%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0155) – 1
= 6.41%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,180)
= Exp(a + b × X1,180 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,716 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.3817 + 0.0012 × 1,716 + 2 × 0.0155)
= Exp(5.5004)
= $244.79

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,180)
= Exp(a + b × X1,180 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,716 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.3817 + 0.0012 × 1,716 – 2 × 0.0155)
= Exp(5.4383)
= $230.05
