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 ROST 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: May 10, 2022
End date: October 25, 2024
a = 3.7331
b = 0.0007
s = 0.0785
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0007) – 1
= 31.09%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0785) – 1
= 36.89%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y620)
= Exp(a + b × X620 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 901 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.7331 + 0.0007 × 901 + 2 × 0.0785)
= Exp(4.5584)
= $95.44
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y620)
= Exp(a + b × X620 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 901 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.7331 + 0.0007 × 901 – 2 × 0.0785)
= Exp(4.2444)
= $69.71

Exp(Y1,239)
= Exp(a + b × X1,239 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,800 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.7331 + 0.0007 × 1,800 + 2 × 0.0785)
= Exp(5.2253)
= $185.91
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,239)
= Exp(a + b × X1,239 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,800 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.7331 + 0.0007 × 1,800 – 2 × 0.0785)
= Exp(4.9112)
= $135.81
