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 WSO 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
Start date: May 18, 2022
End date: November 19, 2024
a = 4.5731
b = 0.0009
s = 0.0567
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0009) – 1
= 40.12%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0567) – 1
= 25.45%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y627)
= Exp(a + b × X627 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 910 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.5731 + 0.0009 × 910 + 2 × 0.0567)
= Exp(5.5275)
= $251.51
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y627)
= Exp(a + b × X627 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 910 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.5731 + 0.0009 × 910 – 2 × 0.0567)
= Exp(5.3008)
= $200.49

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.5731 + 0.0009 × 1,826 + 2 × 0.0567)
= Exp(6.3740)
= $586.42
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,826 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.5731 + 0.0009 × 1,826 – 2 × 0.0567)
= Exp(6.1473)
= $467.47
