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 MTDR 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: February 28, 2022
End date: April 1, 2025

a = 3.9239

b = 0.0001

s = 0.1081

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0001) – 1
= 2.49%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1081) – 1
= 54.09%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y480)
= Exp(a + b × X480 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 697 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.9239 + 0.0001 × 697 + 2 × 0.1081)
= Exp(4.1870)
= $65.82

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y480)
= Exp(a + b × X480 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 697 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.9239 + 0.0001 × 697 – 2 × 0.1081)
= Exp(3.7547)
= $42.72

= Exp(4.2629)
= $71.02

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,255)
= Exp(a + b × X1,255 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,825 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.9239 + 0.0001 × 1,825 – 2 × 0.1081)
= Exp(3.8306)
= $46.09
