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 WKC 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

Start date: October 4, 2023
End date: October 24, 2024
a = 1.4043
b = 0.0011
s = 0.0425
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0011) – 1
= 50.14%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0425) – 1
= 18.52%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y972)
= Exp(a + b × X972 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,413 + 2 × s)
= Exp(1.4043 + 0.0011 × 1,413 + 2 × 0.0425)
= Exp(3.0625)
= $21.38
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y972)
= Exp(a + b × X972 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,413 – 2 × s)
= Exp(1.4043 + 0.0011 × 1,413 – 2 × 0.0425)
= Exp(2.8926)
= $18.04

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,238)
= Exp(a + b × X1,238 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,799 + 2 × s)
= Exp(1.4043 + 0.0011 × 1,799 + 2 × 0.0425)
= Exp(3.4923)
= $32.86
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,238)
= Exp(a + b × X1,238 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,799 – 2 × s)
= Exp(1.4043 + 0.0011 × 1,799 – 2 × 0.0425)
= Exp(3.3224)
= $27.73
