That's not a linear regression. That's just a line connecting 2 points.
The formula for that is easy.
The slope is: m = (y1 - y2) / (x1 - x2)
The intercept is: b = y1 - m*x1 -or- b = y2 - m*x2
where x1,y1 and x2,y2 are your endpoints (where y is in price units and
x is in time units).
Formula for a line is y = mx + b
Your specifications aren't clear as to what you want. Just 2
inputs, price and length? Do you mean the first endpoing is the
price on the current bar and the second endpoint is the price at
length bars back? You don't need a regression for that, or even
a formula for a line. You just need to draw a trendline, with
TL_New() and other TL_ functions.
