 If not, what do you guys use as a preferred baseline of any stocks?

 sty,
 
 You may find the following thread on IBD Flat Base line of added value:
 https://www.stockfetcher.com/forums/General-Discussion/Flat-Base/56824/-1/56824
 
 Other pros use ATR.
 There are good ATR posts by four, davesaint86, and others
 
 Yet other pros use the Kijun Base Line.

 @ Cheese,
 
 Got some questions for you:
 
 Have you ever figured out/able to reconcile between:
 
 a. https://www.stockfetcher.com/forums/Indicators/Linear-Regression-Channels/43 and
 b. https://www.stockfetcher.com/forums/Indicators/Standard-Error-Channels/96317
 
 Specifically, using 16 or 25 days (the square roots of 16 and 25 are 4 and 5 respectively):
 
 1. What's the difference between:
 
 Draw Top Linear Regression Line(16,1.0,0) and
 Draw Top Linear Regression Line(16,1.0,1)
 
 2. What's the conversion between Linear Regression Channel and Standard Error Channel?
 
 https://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/042415/what-difference-between-standard-error-means-and-standard-deviation.asp
 
 Since
 
 
   
 Shouldn't
 
 Draw Top Linear Regression Line(16,1.0,1) = Draw Upper Standard Error Channel (16, 4) ?
 
 If not, what's the correct conversion value between the two using 16 or 25 days as an example?

 sty,
 
 Your questions are beyond my pay grade.
 
 Perhaps, technical minds like nibor100, fotch, xarlor, mahkoh, and many more members
 can answer questions.
 
 I simply get down to my level and use the following link, which is good enough for me:

 Leaning towards the opinion that the built-in stderr calculations may be wrong:
 
 
 
 
 View the results in TABLE.
 
 The good thing: the difference between Top & Bottom Linear Regression Line does equal to standard deviation, and the difference between Upper and lower Standard Error Band does equal to the stderr value.
 
 The bad thing:  the stderr is sometimes greater than the corresponding stddev for the same period, which is statistically impossible!
 
 
  
 
 Wish there is more technical know-how here!

 sty,
 
 In the earlier years, members like TRO, yepher, alf44, Kevin_in_GA, miketranz, niko, etc
 would be able to have a meaningful discussion.
 
 TRO, yepher, and mahkoh have recently resurfaced. Maybe they could chime in.
 
 Currently, members like nibor100, xarlor, miketranz, etc would likely be qualified to
 provide insights.
 
 Also, please contact sF staff. Usually, people who programme the indicators have more
 insightful views than users do.

 sty,
 
 At one point, your posts seemed to refer to  Standard Error Channel and  Standard Error Band
 interchangeably. But sF explanations said they are different.

 For all practical purposes, Linear Regression Line and  Standard Error Channel
 should give the average users the same trading decision support

 Yes, Error Bands and Error Channels are different, similar to LRI and Linear Regression (Channels) respectively.
 
 But they are identical in values as of "today" (terminal value):
