Tesla (TSLA) reported better-than-expected earnings after the close on Wednesday. This sent the stock price soaring, which was enough to put TSLA stock in the lead in the Large Cap Top Up StockCharts Technical Rank<\/a> (SCTR) Report category. It was also the most actively traded S&P 500 ($SPX) stock.<\/p>\n

Tesla Stock Analysis<\/h2>\n

TSLA\u2019s stock price has struggled since November 2021. After hitting a low in January 2023, TSLA stock has been choppy\u2014rising till July 2023, then pulling back, climbing, pulling back, climbing, and falling on the unimpressive Robotaxi day (see weekly chart of TSLA<\/a> below).<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

FIGURE 2. WEEKLY CHART OF TSLA STOCK. The stock price is close to its previous weekly high. A move above that high would support an uptrend in the TSLA\u2019s stock price.<\/span>Chart source: StockCharts.com. For educational purposes.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

After the strong Q3 earnings report, the stock is climbing again. Will it bust through its previous high to continue its uptrend?<\/p>\n

TSLA\u2019s stock price on the daily chart<\/a> is much more erratic than the weekly chart, with many up-and-down price gaps.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Could this be the beginning of an uptrend?<\/span>Chart source: StockCharts.com. For educational purposes.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

The recent earnings report shows a massive breakaway gap<\/a> up in price. The SCTR score spiked from around 41 to over 90. TSLA\u2019s stock price has also moved above its upper Keltner Channel<\/a>, which has started to turn upward. This indicates significant strength in the stock and the beginning of an uptrend.<\/span><\/p>\n

One day doesn\u2019t make a trend, so using a momentum oscillator such as the StochRSI<\/a> when using Keltner Channels can help determine whether the uptrend will continue. The spike in TSLA\u2019s stock price caused the StochRSI to jump from oversold to overbought territory in one day\u2014in this case, it went from 0 to 1, which is unusual.<\/span><\/p>\n

Trading TSLA Stock<\/h2>\n

A significant jump in a popular stock such as TSLA will tempt investors to get in on the price action. But as a smart investor, do you follow the crowd or wait for a pullback before jumping in? I would watch the StochRSI or any other momentum indicator of your choice, wait for a pullback, and then look for momentum to kick in before jumping into the stock.<\/p>\n

From the weekly chart, it\u2019s clear there\u2019s lots of upside momentum in TSLA stock. But the way the stock has been trading lately could mean a lot of choppiness ahead. If this is the beginning of a short-term uptrend, you could wait for a pullback to the upper Keltner channel before jumping in. The stock could do what it did in early July, or pull back to the middle line (20-day exponential moving average<\/a>), similar to what it did in October.<\/p>\n

The Bottom Line<\/h2>\n

I would add TSLA to my Watchlist ChartList, which I use to add charts I\u2019m considering trading. If you haven\u2019t done so already, you should be sure to install the StockCharts ChartList Framework<\/a> to organize your ChartLists better.<\/span><\/p>\n

Monitor TSLA\u2019s chart regularly. I would have this one up on my screen throughout the trading day, because it could be a profitable short-term trade or one that is worth holding on to for a longer period. For a fast-moving stock like TSLA, it\u2019s best to follow the momentum. Identify your entry and exit levels, apply strict money management rules, and follow your plan. Whether you choose to do a short-term trade or a longer-term one depends on your risk tolerance level.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
