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 STX 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: September 21, 2022
End date: November 12, 2024

a = 2.8406

b = 0.0011

s = 0.0736

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0011) – 1
= 49.19%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0736) – 1
= 34.25%

September 21, 2022 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y623)
= Exp(a + b × X623 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 903 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.8406 + 0.0011 × 903 + 2 × 0.0736)
= Exp(3.9775)
= $53.38

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y623)
= Exp(a + b × X623 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 903 – 2 × s)
= Exp(2.8406 + 0.0011 × 903 – 2 × 0.0736)
= Exp(3.6829)
= $39.76

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,162)
= Exp(a + b × X1,162 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,686 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.8406 + 0.0011 × 1,686 + 2 × 0.0736)
= Exp(4.8356)
= $125.92

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,162)
= Exp(a + b × X1,162 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,686 – 2 × s)
= Exp(2.8406 + 0.0011 × 1,686 – 2 × 0.0736)
= Exp(4.5411)
= $93.79

a = 5.2329

b = -0.0004

s = 0.0566

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0004) – 1
