Tesla, Inc. (TSLA) – Technical Analysis (as of 2025-09-22)
Current price and context
- Current Price: 426.07
- Context: TSLA has resumed a strong upmove over the past 6–8 weeks, with price trading well above both the 50-day and 200-day moving averages (MA50 ~340.3; MA200 ~332.8). The bounce from the 320s–340s region into the 420–426 area shows solid bullish momentum, but the RSI has surged into overbought territory (~86.0 on the latest reading), signaling potential near-term consolidation or a pullback. MACD remains positive and expanding, supporting the uptrend, though a pause is plausible given overbought conditions.
Summary Snapshot
- Overall Score (0–20): 13 (Hold)
- Rationale: The uptrend is intact with a strong price/runway above major MAs and a positive MACD, but near-term momentum is overbought (RSI ~86), suggesting a risk of a shallow pullback or sideways consolidation before resuming higher.
- Key Levels:
- Support 1 (S1): 329.40
- Support 2 (S2): 346.40
- Resistance 1 (R1): 395.90
- Resistance 2 (R2): 421.60
- Near-Term Outlook:
- Bullish triggers: Clear sustained move above 421.60 with increased volume, targeting a test toward the next psychological/technical level around 435–450 (and possibly 480+ on a sustained breakout later).
- Bearish/invalidation: Break below 395.90 (or below the more conservative mid-340s region) could open a deeper retracement toward the S2/S1 area around 346–330, with a potential retest of the 320s–340s zone discussed in the prior range.
Technical Analysis
Market structure and trend
- Structure: After a mid-summer pullback into the 320s, TSLA established higher highs and higher lows from August into September, culminating in a fresh high near 426. The recent rally shows a sequence of higher peaks (410–426 region) and higher troughs (roughly 346–395 in the recent progression), indicative of a bullish structure with pullback support near the $330–350 area.
- Trend stance: Uptrend remains intact as price sits well above MA50 and MA200.
Moving averages
- MA relationships: Price is well above MA50 (approx 340) and MA200 (approx 333), with both MAs sloping upward. The bullish separation between price and the MAs supports continuation unless a meaningful pullback occurs toward the MA region.
- Crossovers: No immediate MA crossover signal is needed; the current configuration is bullish as long as price remains above both MAs.
Momentum
- RSI (14): 86.0 (latest). Indicates an overbought condition, suggesting a higher probability of near-term consolidation or brief pullback before continuing the upside.
- MACD (12,26,9): MACD ~24.0, Signal ~16.3, Histogram ~7.7. Positive, widening, and historically supportive of further upside as long as price remains above key supports.
Key levels (reasoning)
- Supports:
- S1: 329.40 (early Sep dip; first major touch in the current rally window)
- S2: 346.40 (near interim consolidation / pullback zone observed around Sep 8–9)
- Resistances:
- R2 (lower resistance): 395.90 (prior high-press region around Sep 12 with price rejection firms the level)
- R1 (upper resistance): 421.60 (recent intraday highs around Sep 16–19; current price sits just below/at this vicinity)
Scenarios and invalidation
- Bullish scenario: Price closes decisively above 421.60 with volume confirmation; next targets ~435–450 near the next cluster of highs, with a longer-term target toward the 460–480 zone on a sustained breakout.
- Bearish/invalidation scenario: A break and close below 395.90 weakens the immediate bull thesis, opening a path toward 346.40–329.40 and possibly back toward the 320s, depending on volume and broader market context.
Notes on reference lines
- 52-Week High: 488.54
- 52-Week Low: 212.11
- The current analysis uses the immediate structural levels above; a separate long-horizon reference line at or near 488.54 could be added for longer-term framing, but is not essential to the near-term framework.
