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 UNP 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

End date: November 29, 2023
a = 5.3569
b = 0.0000
s = 0.0724
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0000) – 1
= -0.94%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0724) – 1
= 33.57%

Exp(Y283)
= Exp(a + b × X283 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 413 + 2 × s)
= Exp(5.3569 + 0.0000 × 413 + 2 × 0.0724)
= Exp(5.4910)
= $242.50
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y283)
= Exp(a + b × X283 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 413 – 2 × s)
= Exp(5.3569 + 0.0000 × 413 – 2 × 0.0724)
= Exp(5.2015)
= $181.55
