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 MTUS 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, 2021
End date: August 30, 2024

a = 2.4752

b = 0.0004

s = 0.1207

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0004) – 1
= 13.71%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1207) – 1
= 62.06%

May 3, 2021 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y415)
= Exp(a + b × X415 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 602 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.4752 + 0.0004 × 602 + 2 × 0.1207)
= Exp(2.9285)
= $18.70

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y415)
= Exp(a + b × X415 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 602 – 2 × s)
= Exp(2.4752 + 0.0004 × 602 – 2 × 0.1207)
= Exp(2.4457)
= $11.54

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,253)
= Exp(a + b × X1,253 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,817 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.4752 + 0.0004 × 1,817 + 2 × 0.1207)
= Exp(3.3562)
= $28.68

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,253)
= Exp(a + b × X1,253 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,817 – 2 × s)
= Exp(2.4752 + 0.0004 × 1,817 – 2 × 0.1207)
= Exp(2.8734)
= $17.70

a = 18.8526

b = -0.0089

s = 0.0486

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0089) – 1
