Tesla Stock (TSLA): Key Price Levels and Compass for Traders [Jan 02, 2025]

Tesla Stock (TSLA): Key Price Levels and Compass for Traders [Jan 02, 2025]

Tesla (TSLA) is currently trading above its developing value area low (VAL) at $401.91 of today, a critical support level that aligns closely with key levels from December 10th at $400.39 and $400.99. These levels, along with the psychological $400 round number, mark a significant support zone where the market recently reversed upward after an 18% decline from its all-time high of $488. Below is a detailed breakdown of key price levels and guidance for traders navigating Tesla’s next moves.

Key Levels for Tesla Bulls

Immediate Support and Reversal Zone

  • $401.91: Today’s developing value area low (VAL). Holding above this level is crucial for the bullish reversal to remain intact.
  • $400.39–$400.99: Key historic support levels from December 10, situated just above the psychological $400 round number.

Upside Resistance and Profit-Taking Zones

  • $411.57: A previous naked level, likely to act as initial resistance if price continues upward.
  • $413.15: Yesterday’s VWAP, a significant level that bulls must conquer to sustain momentum.
  • $416.56: Yesterday’s value area high (VAH). Breaking this level is critical for a potential test of the highs of the ATH, and even a lower double top relative to the all-time high.
  • $418.80: The value area low (VAL) of December 20, another likely resistance where partial profit-taking may occur.
  • $436.00: A significant naked level that could act as a magnet for further bullish moves. If reached, traders are expected to take partial profits.

Key Levels for Tesla Bears

Breakdown Levels Below Support

  • $400: A psychological level and critical support zone. Sustained trading below this level would signal a bearish shift.
  • $374–$379: The next significant support zone, marking a potential additional 6% downside from current levels.

Broader Context: Tesla’s Decline and Reversal Potential

Tesla has declined 18% from its all-time high, a significant correction that has likely prompted profitable shorts to reduce their positions, leading to buying activity. The current bounce from the $401 area suggests a potential reversal in play. However, for the bullish move to gain traction, price must overcome key resistance levels, particularly $413.15 (yesterday’s VWAP) and $416.56 (yesterday’s VAH).

These levels are not random but represent key liquidity zones where professional traders and algorithms will monitor price action closely. Watching how Tesla reacts at these junctions is essential for both bulls and bears.

What Tesla Traders Should Be Watching

  • Above $401.91: Bulls remain in control, with resistance at $411.57, $413.15, $416.56, and $418.80. Further upside targets include $436 and potentially higher.
  • Below $400: A bearish shift occurs, with targets at $374–$379 for additional downside.
  • Profit-Taking Levels: Traders should consider taking partial profits at resistance levels such as $416.56, $418.80, and $436, especially if playing the long side from the recent reversal near $401.91.

These levels are key junctions where liquidity and significant price reactions are likely. Always monitor price action around these levels to make informed trading decisions.

Tesla will announce Q4 delivery numbers imminently

Tesla will announce Q4 delivery numbers imminently

Shares of Tesla have been a big post-election winner as Elon Musk cozies up to the President-elect.

There has been some selling of TSLA in the past week, in part because of angst about auto sales. The Q4 number will be released around the top of the hour and the consensus is 506,763.

I’m tempted to lean on the higher side because of the usual end-of-quarter incentives from Tesla and because the company forecast ‘slight growth’ in sales in 2024. In order to grow at all in the year, the company will need to sell about 515,000 cars this quarter.

The big X-factor in the year ahead is the anticipated removal of the $7000 instant rebate on Tesla sales that’s almost certain to be removed in a Republican Congress. There will be a flurry of sales before it’s taken away, followed by a bust. Against that, Elon Musk has promised to unveil a lower-priced car.

ForexLive European FX news wrap: Dollar holds firm, US futures rise

ForexLive European FX news wrap: Dollar holds firm, US futures rise

Headlines:

Markets:

  • AUD leads, GBP lags on the day
  • European equities lower; S&P 500 futures up 0.8%
  • US 10-year yields down 5.6 bps to 4.52%
  • Gold up 0.8% to $2,644.13
  • WTI crude up 1.5% to $72.79
  • Bitcoin up 2.1% o $96,749

The dollar looks to be wanting to pick up from where it left off at the end of last year. That as we see European currencies stumble during the session. EUR/USD fell to its lowest since November as it drops to 1.0315 from 1.0370 earlier in the day. Meanwhile, GBP/USD is down 0.8% to its lowest levels since April in a fall to 1.2420 during the session.

The bond selloff has taken a pause but we’re still keeping with the momentum in FX to start the new year. 10-year yields in the US are down to 4.52% as bonds and equities are both staying more bid today. S&P 500 futures are up 0.8% as tech shares lead the charge, leaving European indices behind in the dust. The DAX is down 0.1% while CAC 40 is down 0.7% after a positive start earlier in the day.

Going back to major currencies, USD/JPY was more muted as it stuck around 157.00 while the antipodes were just a tad higher but lightly changed in terms of overall movement.

Elsewhere, gold is off to a decently hot start as well as it climbs to a two-week high of $2,644 while silver is trading back up above $29 after holding at the double bottom from the December lows around $28.80. Could this be the year where silver finally outperforms gold on the back of more industrial demand as well? We’ll see.
