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 J 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: January 16, 2025
End date: March 18, 2025
a = 9.6679
b = -0.0027
s = 0.0129
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0027) – 1
= -62.58%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0129) – 1
= 5.28%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,204)
= Exp(a + b × X1,204 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,750 + 2 × s)
= Exp(9.6679 + -0.0027 × 1,750 + 2 × 0.0129)
= Exp(4.9808)
= $145.60
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,204)
= Exp(a + b × X1,204 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,750 – 2 × s)
= Exp(9.6679 + -0.0027 × 1,750 – 2 × 0.0129)
= Exp(4.9294)
= $138.30

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,245)
= Exp(a + b × X1,245 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,811 + 2 × s)
= Exp(9.6679 + -0.0027 × 1,811 + 2 × 0.0129)
= Exp(4.8166)
= $123.54
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,245)
= Exp(a + b × X1,245 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,811 – 2 × s)
= Exp(9.6679 + -0.0027 × 1,811 – 2 × 0.0129)
= Exp(4.7651)
= $117.35
