Tesla has posted further gains as part of a 3 day trend that has already seen the stock gain $1.57. Tesla lived up to expectations Friday by maintaining its set course — after ending Thursday at $184.47, Tesla went up to $198.6 only to drop back, yet still traded well overall and closed at $193.17 Friday.
The stock has been trending positively for about 30 days. This year has been a bright one for Elon Musk's EV company after trading as low as $108.1 and going on to appreciate by 85.58% year to date.
Trend analysis indicates that investors are seeking long positions as Tesla price action surged above +100 — a key CCI threshold indicating an imminent bullish trend. Price action overcame a known Fibonacci resistance level at $187.04 by around $6.13 with prices hammering out a $184.53 – $198.6 session range. Asset volatility analysis shows that Bollinger Band® analysis indicates that current price action is approaching the upper band at $195.08, thereby suggesting that Tesla is becoming overvalued. A study of Tesla's historical price actions shows although Tesla is appreciating today after rising as high as $198.6, price action is now slowing and consolidating around $6.5 below the $199.67 resistance level.
Overall, while Tesla has been on an uptrend, technical indicators suggest that it has no obvious direction for the immediate future.
