Technical Analysis – Tesla’s stock could still face a bumpy road ahead
- Tesla stock stabilizes near 215, but downside risks remain
- Next support could develop around 200-205
- Q3 earnings due after the market closes
Tesla’s stock has been hanging around 215 for a week after losing half of its 40% August-September rally.
The technical picture is not looking bright yet. Having slid below the support trendline that connects the lows from April, the stock may suffer more downside in the coming sessions as the RSI and the MACD are displaying bearish vibes.
Should the nearby base of 215 crack, the sell-off may extend towards the 200-205 territory, where the 200-day simple moving average (SMA) is sitting. That was a key pivot zone during previous years, and a close beneath it may lead the price straight to the 186 barrier.
In the case of an upside reversal, the bulls may fight for a close above the 227-235 region, where the 20- and 50-day SMAs as well as the broken ascending trendline are located. If they win, the price could speed up towards the 250 mark, though only a rally above the long-term resistance line at 260 could put the market back to an uptrend.
Summing up, Tesla’s stock is off to a shaky month and the 200-205 area could be the next destination if things don’t turn around.
