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 WMG 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: April 3, 2025
a = 3.1733
b = 0.0002
s = 0.0989
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0002) – 1
= 7.44%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0989) – 1
= 48.52%

= Exp(3.4757)
= $32.32
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y366)
= Exp(a + b × X366 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 532 – 2 × s)
= Exp(3.1733 + 0.0002 × 532 – 2 × 0.0989)
= Exp(3.0802)
= $21.76
