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 NUE 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 30, 2024
End date: November 5, 2024
a = 7.0542
b = -0.0012
s = 0.0496
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0012) – 1
= -34.75%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0496) – 1
= 21.97%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,052)
= Exp(a + b × X1,052 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,531 + 2 × s)
= Exp(7.0542 + -0.0012 × 1,531 + 2 × 0.0496)
= Exp(5.3629)
= $213.35
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,052)
= Exp(a + b × X1,052 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,531 – 2 × s)
= Exp(7.0542 + -0.0012 × 1,531 – 2 × 0.0496)
= Exp(5.1643)
= $174.92

Exp(Y1,246)
= Exp(a + b × X1,246 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,811 + 2 × s)
= Exp(7.0542 + -0.0012 × 1,811 + 2 × 0.0496)
= Exp(5.0354)
= $153.77
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,246)
= Exp(a + b × X1,246 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,811 – 2 × s)
= Exp(7.0542 + -0.0012 × 1,811 – 2 × 0.0496)
= Exp(4.8369)
= $126.07
