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 PRGS 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: April 26, 2024
End date: November 19, 2024

a = 1.1865

b = 0.0017

s = 0.0361

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0017) – 1
= 83.07%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0361) – 1
= 15.53%

April 26, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,114)
= Exp(a + b × X1,114 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,619 + 2 × s)
= Exp(1.1865 + 0.0017 × 1,619 + 2 × 0.0361)
= Exp(3.9409)
= $51.46

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,114)
= Exp(a + b × X1,114 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,619 – 2 × s)
= Exp(1.1865 + 0.0017 × 1,619 – 2 × 0.0361)
= Exp(3.7965)
= $44.54

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 + 2 × s)
= Exp(1.1865 + 0.0017 × 1,826 + 2 × 0.0361)
= Exp(4.2838)
= $72.51

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 – 2 × s)
= Exp(1.1865 + 0.0017 × 1,826 – 2 × 0.0361)
= Exp(4.1394)
= $62.76
