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 SXC 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: February 12, 2021
End date: November 5, 2024

a = 1.5258

b = 0.0004

s = 0.1112

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0004) – 1
= 17.29%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.1112) – 1
= 56.00%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y308)
= Exp(a + b × X308 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 449 + 2 × s)
= Exp(1.5258 + 0.0004 × 449 + 2 × 0.1112)
= Exp(1.9443)
= $6.99

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y308)
= Exp(a + b × X308 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 449 – 2 × s)
= Exp(1.5258 + 0.0004 × 449 – 2 × 0.1112)
= Exp(1.4996)
= $4.48

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,246)
= Exp(a + b × X1,246 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,811 + 2 × s)
= Exp(1.5258 + 0.0004 × 1,811 + 2 × 0.1112)
= Exp(2.5394)
= $12.67

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,246)
= Exp(a + b × X1,246 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,811 – 2 × s)
= Exp(1.5258 + 0.0004 × 1,811 – 2 × 0.1112)
= Exp(2.0947)
= $8.12

a = 3.5310

b = -0.0008

s = 0.0666

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0008) – 1
= -24.30%

Price channel spread:
