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 ACN 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 = 4.6710

b = 0.0013

s = 0.0328

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0013) – 1
= 60.68%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0328) – 1
= 14.00%

Exp(Y468)
= Exp(a + b × X468 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 679 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.6710 + 0.0013 × 679 + 2 × 0.0328)
= Exp(5.6188)
= $275.57

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y468)
= Exp(a + b × X468 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 679 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.6710 + 0.0013 × 679 – 2 × 0.0328)
= Exp(5.4878)
