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 KEX 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: December 6, 2022
End date: November 19, 2024
a = 2.9930
b = 0.0010
s = 0.0792
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0010) – 1
= 44.36%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0792) – 1
= 37.25%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y766)
= Exp(a + b × X766 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,112 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.9930 + 0.0010 × 1,112 + 2 × 0.0792)
= Exp(4.2697)
= $71.50
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y766)
= Exp(a + b × X766 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,112 – 2 × s)
= Exp(2.9930 + 0.0010 × 1,112 – 2 × 0.0792)
= Exp(3.9531)
= $52.10

= Exp(a + b × 1,826 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.9930 + 0.0010 × 1,826 + 2 × 0.0792)
= Exp(4.9878)
= $146.62
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 – 2 × s)
= Exp(2.9930 + 0.0010 × 1,826 – 2 × 0.0792)
= Exp(4.6712)
= $106.83
