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 MDT 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 = 4.1469

b = 0.0002

s = 0.0544

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × 0.0002) – 1
= 6.38%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0544) – 1
= 24.33%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y625)
= Exp(a + b × X625 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 905 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.1469 + 0.0002 × 905 + 2 × 0.0544)
= Exp(4.4092)
= $82.21

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y625)
= Exp(a + b × X625 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 905 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.1469 + 0.0002 × 905 – 2 × 0.0544)
= Exp(4.1914)
