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 HUM 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: October 16, 2023
End date: May 6, 2024

a = 11.0465

b = -0.0029

s = 0.0448

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0029) – 1
= -65.68%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0448) – 1
= 19.64%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,118)
= Exp(a + b × X1,118 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,622 + 2 × s)
= Exp(11.0465 + -0.0029 × 1,622 + 2 × 0.0448)
= Exp(6.3836)
= $592.06

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,118)
= Exp(a + b × X1,118 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,622 – 2 × s)
= Exp(11.0465 + -0.0029 × 1,622 – 2 × 0.0448)
= Exp(6.2043)
= $494.87

= Exp(a + b × 1,825 + 2 × s)
= Exp(11.0465 + -0.0029 × 1,825 + 2 × 0.0448)
= Exp(5.7888)
= $326.62

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,257)
= Exp(a + b × X1,257 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,825 – 2 × s)
