Tesla is coiling right under a major resistance level. Before jumping in on a potential breakout, you need to make sure buyers actually have control so you don't get caught in a bull trap.
3 Things To Watch Before Entering
-
1. High Volume on the Push: A real breakout needs strong relative volume. If $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ pushes past resistance on low volume, sellers will easily slam it back down.
-
2. Daily Candle Close Above Resistance: Avoid buying the first intraday spike. Wait for a solid 4-hour or daily candle close above the level to confirm buyers are holding the line.
-
3. Broad Market Alignment: $TSLA rarely trends up alone if $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ or $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ are selling off. Make sure market momentum is at your back.
