StockInvest.us, 10 months ago
The Tesla stock price fell by -3.69% on the last day (Friday, 20th Oct 2023) from $220.11 to $211.99. It has now fallen 3 days in a row. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 4.01% from a day low at $210.42 to a day high of $218.85. The price has fallen in 7 of the last 10 days and is down by -18.63% for this period. Volume fell on the last day along with the stock, which is actually a good sign as volume should follow the stock. On the last day, the trading volume fell by -33 million shares and in total, 137 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $29.03 billion.
On Oct 03, 2023, it was reported that GLJ Research gave TSLA a "Sell" grade with a "hold" action.
The stock has broken the very wide and horizontal trend down. Breaks like this are often followed by swift and strong movements, and any correction down to the breakline at approximately $214.35 is considered to be a "second chance" to get out before further fall. It is, however, important to note that false breaks may appear and that the price may move back into the horizontal trend. A break on increasing volume is considered to be more significant and reliable than breaks on low volume.
There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The Tesla stock holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $241.93 and $254.26. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Thursday, September 14, 2023, and so far it has fallen -23.20%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume fell together with the price during the last trading day and this reduces the overall risk as volume should follow the price movements.
There is no support from accumulated volume below today's level and given the right condition the stock may perform very badly in the next couple of days.
This stock has average movements during the day and with good trading volume, the risk is considered to be medium. During the last day, the stock moved $8.43 between high and low, or 4.01%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 4.49%.
Tesla holds several negative signals and is within a very wide and falling trend, so we believe it will still perform weakly in the next couple of days or weeks. We therefore hold a negative evaluation of this stock.Due to some small weaknesses in the technical picture we have downgraded our analysis conclusion for this stock since the last evaluation from a Sell to a Strong Sell candidate.
