Does Tesla Need to Recharge its Batteries?
Tesla rallied more than 50 percent from its lows of the year through earlier this week. But now it may be running out of juice.
The main pattern on today’s chart is the price area around $939. It was the opening price on May 5 before TSLA knifed under its 200-day simple moving average (SMA) and proceeded toward $600. Price touched that level on August 4 without closing above it. The same thing happened on Tuesday, resulting in a potential double-top at a previous breakdown level.
Next, there’s confluence with the 200-day SMA. Will that also become resistance?
Third, Fibonacci: The price area closely matches the 50 percent retracement of TSLA’s drop between November and May.
Fourth, the nine-day rate of change has slipped into negative territory. Other times that happened, like early January and mid-April, were followed by pushes to the downside.
Finally, MACD is flattening after rising for more than two months.
