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 NXST 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 12, 2022
End date: November 19, 2024

a = 5.0910

b = 0.0000

s = 0.0781

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0000) – 1
= -0.48%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0781) – 1
= 36.68%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y540)
= Exp(a + b × X540 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 784 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.0910 + 0.0000 × 784 + 2 × 0.0781)
= Exp(5.2369)
= $188.09

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y540)
= Exp(a + b × X540 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 784 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.0910 + 0.0000 × 784 – 2 × 0.0781)
= Exp(4.9244)
= $137.61
