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 SWN 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: March 23, 2022
End date: June 23, 2023

a = 3.0337

b = -0.0011

s = 0.0947

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0011) – 1
= -33.29%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0947) – 1
= 46.06%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y587)
= Exp(a + b × X587 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 853 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.0337 + -0.0011 × 853 + 2 × 0.0947)
= Exp(2.2770)
= $9.75

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y587)
= Exp(a + b × X587 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 853 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.0337 + -0.0011 × 853 – 2 × 0.0947)
= Exp(1.8982)
= $6.67

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y901)
= Exp(a + b × X901 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,310 + 2 × s)
= Exp(3.0337 + -0.0011 × 1,310 + 2 × 0.0947)
= Exp(1.7702)
= $5.87

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y901)
= Exp(a + b × X901 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,310 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.0337 + -0.0011 × 1,310 – 2 × 0.0947)
= Exp(1.3913)
= $4.02

a = 0.9464

b = 0.0006

s = 0.0807

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0006) – 1
= 25.71%

Price channel spread:
