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 PG 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: August 20, 2024
End date: January 29, 2026

a = 5.5196

b = -0.0003

s = 0.0269

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0003) – 1
= -10.30%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0269) – 1
= 11.37%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y888)
= Exp(a + b × X888 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,289 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.5196 + -0.0003 × 1,289 + 2 × 0.0269)
= Exp(5.1894)
= $179.36

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y888)
= Exp(a + b × X888 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,289 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.5196 + -0.0003 × 1,289 – 2 × 0.0269)
= Exp(5.0817)
= $161.05

January 29, 2026 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,249)
= Exp(a + b × X1,249 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,816 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.5196 + -0.0003 × 1,816 + 2 × 0.0269)
= Exp(5.0324)
= $153.29

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,249)
= Exp(a + b × X1,249 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,816 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.5196 + -0.0003 × 1,816 – 2 × 0.0269)
= Exp(4.9247)
= $137.65
