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 WDFC 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

a = 4.5464
b = 0.0006
s = 0.0780
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0006) – 1
= 25.42%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0780) – 1
= 36.61%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y571)
= Exp(a + b × X571 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 828 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.5464 + 0.0006 × 828 + 2 × 0.0780)
= Exp(5.2162)
= $184.23
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y571)
= Exp(a + b × X571 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 828 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.5464 + 0.0006 × 828 – 2 × 0.0780)
= Exp(4.9042)
= $134.86

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,188)
= Exp(a + b × X1,188 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,723 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.5464 + 0.0006 × 1,723 + 2 × 0.0780)
= Exp(5.7716)
= $321.05
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,188)
= Exp(a + b × X1,188 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,723 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.5464 + 0.0006 × 1,723 – 2 × 0.0780)
= Exp(5.4596)
