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 URI 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

End date: March 31, 2025

a = 10.0403

b = -0.0020

s = 0.0585

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0020) – 1
= -51.32%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0585) – 1
= 26.37%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,140)
= Exp(a + b × X1,140 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,654 + 2 × s)
= Exp(10.0403 + -0.0020 × 1,654 + 2 × 0.0585)
= Exp(6.8952)
= $987.56

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,140)
= Exp(a + b × X1,140 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,654 – 2 × s)
