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 SYK 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: June 8, 2022
End date: March 7, 2025

a = 4.7967

b = 0.0007

s = 0.0612

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0007) – 1
= 27.69%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0612) – 1
= 27.73%

June 8, 2022 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y549)
= Exp(a + b × X549 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 796 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.7967 + 0.0007 × 796 + 2 × 0.0612)
= Exp(5.4522)
= $233.27

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y549)
= Exp(a + b × X549 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 796 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.7967 + 0.0007 × 796 – 2 × 0.0612)
= Exp(5.2075)
= $182.63

March 7, 2025 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,237)
= Exp(a + b × X1,237 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,799 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.7967 + 0.0007 × 1,799 + 2 × 0.0612)
= Exp(6.1239)
= $456.65

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,237)
= Exp(a + b × X1,237 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,799 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.7967 + 0.0007 × 1,799 – 2 × 0.0612)
= Exp(5.8792)
= $357.51
