$TSLA Trade Analysis DarkPoolsOverview of Chart
The updated chart for TSLA shows additional volume information, key pivot levels (R1, R2, R3, P, and S1), and dark pool prints, which provide a clearer picture of institutional activity and support/resistance zones. The chart continues to reflect the stock's bullish trend but highlights a potential consolidation phase around critical resistance.
Key Observations
Trend Continuation with Consolidation:
TSLA remains in an uptrend, with the price still above the 8 EMA (white line), which acts as a short-term dynamic support.
However, the current candles indicate consolidation near the R2 pivot level ($443.60), where selling pressure is evident.
Dark Pool Prints and Institutional Activity:
The dark pool print at $436.17 (1.6M shares) remains a critical support level. This suggests institutional interest in this price area, likely acting as a floor for further pullbacks.
Holding above this level confirms bullish sentiment. A failure to hold this level could accelerate a bearish pullback toward lower pivot levels.
Volume Analysis:
The chart now shows elevated volume on recent red candles, which suggests increased selling pressure near resistance levels.
Notably, the volume spike is not overwhelmingly bearish, indicating potential profit-taking rather than a complete reversal of the trend.
Pivot Levels and Support/Resistance Zones:
Immediate Resistance: The R2 pivot ($443.60) is acting as a ceiling for TSLA's recent upward momentum. Breaking this level could result in a move toward R3 ($514.82).
Immediate Support: The dark pool level ($436.17) and the 8 EMA align as immediate support levels. Below this, the R1 pivot ($391.77) and 21 EMA ($393.86) represent the next significant supports.
Bearish Divergence Risk:
While the overall trend is bullish, the consolidation near R2 and elevated selling volume suggest a potential pullback if support levels fail to hold.
Trade Plan
Bullish Scenario:
Entry: A confirmed breakout above the R2 pivot ($443.60) with increasing volume. Ideally, a daily close above this level will confirm the breakout.
Targets:
First Target (T1): $456 (recent swing high).
Second Target (T2): $514.82 (R3 pivot).
Stop Loss: Below the dark pool level ($436.17).
Bearish Scenario:
Entry: If TSLA closes below $436.17 and the 8 EMA, indicating a loss of short-term bullish momentum.
Targets:
First Target (T1): $413 (pivot support).
Second Target (T2): $393.86 (21 EMA).
Stop Loss: Above the R2 pivot ($443.60).
Additional Considerations
Risk Management:
TSLA is volatile, and trades should consider position sizing and stop-loss placement to manage risk effectively.
Monitor the overall market sentiment (e.g., SPY, QQQ) for confirmation of broader trends.
Institutional Influence:
Keep an eye on how the price reacts to the dark pool print at $436.17. Institutional support or rejection here will guide the next move.
Broader Market Factors:
Tesla's price can be influenced by sector-wide news (e.g., EV market trends) and macroeconomic factors (e.g., interest rates or broader tech sentiment).
