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 QLYS 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: November 17, 2023
End date: November 4, 2024
a = 7.5071
b = -0.0015
s = 0.0488
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0015) – 1
= -42.47%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0488) – 1
= 21.55%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,005)
= Exp(a + b × X1,005 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,458 + 2 × s)
= Exp(7.5071 + -0.0015 × 1,458 + 2 × 0.0488)
= Exp(5.3963)
= $220.59
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,005)
= Exp(a + b × X1,005 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,458 – 2 × s)
= Exp(7.5071 + -0.0015 × 1,458 – 2 × 0.0488)
= Exp(5.2012)
= $181.48

= Exp(7.5071 + -0.0015 × 1,811 + 2 × 0.0488)
= Exp(4.8617)
= $129.24
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,246)
= Exp(a + b × X1,246 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,811 – 2 × s)
