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 JJSF 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: May 3, 2022
End date: January 29, 2024

a = 4.4306

b = 0.0004

s = 0.0476

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0004) – 1
= 17.18%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0476) – 1
= 20.97%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y668)
= Exp(a + b × X668 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 967 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.4306 + 0.0004 × 967 + 2 × 0.0476)
= Exp(4.9458)
= $140.59

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y668)
= Exp(a + b × X668 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 967 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.4306 + 0.0004 × 967 – 2 × 0.0476)
= Exp(4.7555)
= $116.22

January 29, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,104)
= Exp(a + b × X1,104 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,603 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.4306 + 0.0004 × 1,603 + 2 × 0.0476)
= Exp(5.2221)
= $185.33

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,104)
= Exp(a + b × X1,104 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,603 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.4306 + 0.0004 × 1,603 – 2 × 0.0476)
= Exp(5.0317)
= $153.20
