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 SBAC 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: July 14, 2021
End date: July 25, 2024

a = 6.2357

b = -0.0006

s = 0.0755

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0006) – 1
= -18.98%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0755) – 1
= 35.28%

July 14, 2021 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y413)
= Exp(a + b × X413 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 602 + 2 × s)
= Exp(6.2357 + -0.0006 × 602 + 2 × 0.0755)
= Exp(6.0397)
= $419.77

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y413)
= Exp(a + b × X413 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 602 – 2 × s)
= Exp(6.2357 + -0.0006 × 602 – 2 × 0.0755)
= Exp(5.7375)
= $310.30

July 25, 2024 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,175)
= Exp(a + b × X1,175 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,709 + 2 × s)
= Exp(6.2357 + -0.0006 × 1,709 + 2 × 0.0755)
= Exp(5.4014)
= $221.72

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,175)
= Exp(a + b × X1,175 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,709 – 2 × s)
= Exp(6.2357 + -0.0006 × 1,709 – 2 × 0.0755)
= Exp(5.0992)
= $163.90
