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 CMG 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: March 25, 2024
End date: September 24, 2026

a = 4.9697

b = -0.0008

s = 0.0995

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0008) – 1
= -26.41%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0995) – 1
= 48.87%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y626)
= Exp(a + b × X626 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 910 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9697 + -0.0008 × 910 + 2 × 0.0995)
= Exp(4.4042)
= $81.79

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y626)
= Exp(a + b × X626 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 910 – 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9697 + -0.0008 × 910 – 2 × 0.0995)
= Exp(4.0063)
= $54.95

= Exp(a + b × 1,823 + 2 × s)
= Exp(4.9697 + -0.0008 × 1,823 + 2 × 0.0995)
= Exp(3.6372)
= $37.99

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,253)
= Exp(a + b × X1,253 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,823 – 2 × s)
