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 MO 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: March 12, 2021
End date: May 6, 2024

a = 4.0314

b = -0.0002

s = 0.0569

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0002) – 1
= -5.87%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0569) – 1
= 25.56%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y456)
= Exp(a + b × X456 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 661 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.0314 + -0.0002 × 661 + 2 × 0.0569)
= Exp(4.0357)
= $56.58

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y456)
= Exp(a + b × X456 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 661 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.0314 + -0.0002 × 661 – 2 × 0.0569)
= Exp(3.8081)
= $45.06
