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 NOV 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 29, 2014
End date: April 26, 2016
a = 6.2397
b = -0.0017
s = 0.0644
Annual growth rate:
Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0017) – 1
= -46.11%
Price channel spread:
Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0644) – 1
= 29.36%

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y707)
= Exp(a + b × X707 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,029 + 2 × s)
= Exp(6.2397 + -0.0017 × 1,029 + 2 × 0.0644)
= Exp(4.6257)
= $102.07
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y707)
= Exp(a + b × X707 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,029 – 2 × s)
= Exp(6.2397 + -0.0017 × 1,029 – 2 × 0.0644)
= Exp(4.3682)
= $78.90

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,188)
= Exp(a + b × X1,188 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,727 + 2 × s)
= Exp(6.2397 + -0.0017 × 1,727 + 2 × 0.0644)
= Exp(3.4435)
= $31.30
Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,188)
= Exp(a + b × X1,188 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,727 – 2 × s)
= Exp(6.2397 + -0.0017 × 1,727 – 2 × 0.0644)
= Exp(3.1861)
= $24.19

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Y1,112)
= Exp(a + b × X1,112 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,616 + 2 × s)
= Exp(2.2995 + 0.0007 × 1,616 + 2 × 0.0596)
= Exp(3.4963)
= $32.99
