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 LLY 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: June 3, 2024
End date: April 1, 2025
a = 7.2749
b = -0.0003
s = 0.0658
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0003) – 1
= -10.90%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0658) – 1
= 30.09%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,048)
= Exp(a + b × X1,048 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,523 + 2 × s)
= Exp(7.2749 + -0.0003 × 1,523 + 2 × 0.0658)
= Exp(6.9248)
= $1,017.20
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,048)
= Exp(a + b × X1,048 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,523 – 2 × s)
= Exp(7.2749 + -0.0003 × 1,523 – 2 × 0.0658)
= Exp(6.6618)
= $781.93

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,255)
= Exp(a + b × X1,255 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,825 + 2 × s)
= Exp(7.2749 + -0.0003 × 1,825 + 2 × 0.0658)
= Exp(6.8293)
= $924.55
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,255)
= Exp(a + b × X1,255 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,825 – 2 × s)
= Exp(7.2749 + -0.0003 × 1,825 – 2 × 0.0658)
= Exp(6.5663)
= $710.70
