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 PLAY 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 1, 2024
End date: March 31, 2025

a = 7.8374

b = -0.0026

s = 0.1262

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0026) – 1
= -61.50%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1262) – 1
= 65.65%

February 1, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y965)
= Exp(a + b × X965 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,401 + 2 × s)
= Exp(7.8374 + -0.0026 × 1,401 + 2 × 0.1262)
= Exp(4.4258)
= $83.58

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y965)
= Exp(a + b × X965 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,401 – 2 × s)
= Exp(7.8374 + -0.0026 × 1,401 – 2 × 0.1262)
= Exp(3.9211)
= $50.46

March 31, 2025 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,255)
= Exp(a + b × X1,255 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,825 + 2 × s)
= Exp(7.8374 + -0.0026 × 1,825 + 2 × 0.1262)
= Exp(3.3170)
= $27.58

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,255)
= Exp(a + b × X1,255 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,825 – 2 × s)
= Exp(7.8374 + -0.0026 × 1,825 – 2 × 0.1262)
= Exp(2.8123)
= $16.65

a = 12.3372

b = -0.0052

s = 0.0810

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0052) – 1
