What are Tesla Bulls Waiting For?

U.S. Markets finished up over 1% for the day, setting up an interesting end-of-week trading session. The jobs report lands tomorrow at 8:30 AM EST. and will likely determine the next trend. Today we will go over the PowerShares QQQ (QQQ) and Tesla, Inc. (TSLA). But, first I want to mention that a few days ago I posted a GLD chart stating that it was setting up for some upside. Today may have the start of that upside. Could the market be front running the jobs report tomorrow and could Gold be the sole beneficiary? Another hot name of note today was Square, Inc. (SQ) which blew up for nearly 10%. If you read over a week ago I mentioned that SQ was setting up with a cup and handle pattern and a measured move target of 73... target met.

All the "HOT" Tech Names Reported...Right?

It's obvious, tech has contributed to a vast majority of the rally off the March low. That is why I have been tracking the QQQ so often. The question I have now is, have all the hot tech stocks reported earnings? Nividia is the only one I can think that hasn't reported yet. Just something to think about. Below is the 4-hour chart of the QQQ.

I zoomed in a bit to get a cleaner shot of this rising wedge. Normally bearish, though there are instances when there are upside breaks. At times there are throw overs. Which happens when price breaks out from above the wedge then quickly reverses back into the wedge. Typically this turns out to be a strong reversal and has happened before on the Nasdaq-100 (NDX). Check the chart below.

The result of the throw over can be seen above. Unfortunately, back in September 2018, price reversed back up but eventually met the lower bound of the rising wedge which acted as resistance. Eventually, the NDX declined 23%. This is the scenario I am looking at. Current price action may lead to a throw over so watch for this potentially tomorrow. Bias: Bearish.

Elon and Joe...Again

I haven't listened to or watched the latest stint of Elon Musk on the Joe Rogan Show, so I can't speak to that. I can talk TA, and TSLA, a normally volatile stock traded sideways today netting a loss of -0.32% for the day. Perhaps the calm before a larger move to come? Below is the 4-hour chart of TSLA.

Chaikin continues to mimic itself from over a month ago. Price is also consolidating at the high below resistance while inching closer to trendline support. The longer it takes for the TSLA bulls to follow through the more bearish this chart gets. Keep an eye on TSLA the next few days, as it may be the key to the market. Bias: Bearish.

I'll be posting early in the morning ahead of the jobs report. I'll be taking a look at the VIX and Silver. Have a great evening!
