Tesla's poor earnings this week have accelerated the recent bearish sentiment in the stock, & after such an event, it's often useful to look at the slower timeframes to see if this is merely a blip from which the stock can recover or if it is indeed the start of a major reversal.
This is where the VPA concepts of support and resistance come into play along with the Quantum accumulation & distribution indicator. Considering the monthly chart, Tesla bulls do appear to have some respite ahead as the price action is poised on relatively strong support at the $177 level. What's even more encouraging is we also have the support on the weekly chart.
What will also determine whether Tesla continues lower is the volume, which so far for January is light considering the spread of the candle. However, we do have to reserve judgment until month end.

Despite a laundry list of risk factors that include inflation and geopolitical events, retail investors have been pouring their money into US stocks, and in particular stocks such as Tesla, which alone attracted almost $10bn since the beginning of this year. We can see this level of volume on the weekly chart for the stock, along with the levels Tesla has to overcome if the price is to continue higher. In such circumstances, using volume price analysis will help to determine whether this retail cohort will be left stranded at the current level or whether it is indeed the start of a major reversal for the stock. The Quantum indicators that come into their own in these circumstances are a combination of the volume point of control and the accumulation and distribution indicator, where key levels are not only clearly marked on the chart, but the lines also thicken each time the level is tested, giving us a visual of...
All traders and investors know that recognizing the most significant levels of support and resistance on a chart is key. There are many ways this can be done, from simple, hand-drawn lines to specialist indicators. Two such indicators from us here at Quantumtrading are the accumulation and distribution indicator and the volume point of control. The A&D indicator is price based, while the volume point of control (aka vpoc) includes both price and volume, and we can see how these work on the weekly chart for gold.
What is unique about the accumulation and distribution indicator is that the lines thicken each time the price is touched, thereby confirming the relative strength of that particular support or resistance level.
Meantime, the vpoc not only gives us the key levels based on price and volume but also highlights the congestion/consolidation zones where the price action is likely to pause or even struggle in its journey higher or lower.
Using these indicators together gives traders...
A look at the daily and weekly charts for gold following its recent move higher, which appears to be driven by the meltdown in the crypto space and not the ongoing raging inflation and geopolitical worries. The charts speak for themselves, and the question is whether the precious metal can maintain the bullish momentum. The volume price analysis signals on the daily confirm a slowdown and correction with the key resistance levels on the weekly confirming.

Volume price analysis signals appear across all markets and timeframes. In this recording, David & I consider these on the DXY, the Indices, and the triple-levered semi-conductor ETF, the SOXL. However, as we explain, it is essential to view vpa not only in multiple timeframes but also in the context of support and resistance, which is where the Quantum indicators can help the accumulation and distribution indicator, particularly which not only marks these key levels on the chart but also confirms their relative strength. It does this by thickening the line each time it is touched, giving us a clear visual picture of the effort required to break through the levels.

Extreme market volatility can provide some great trading opportunities. In this video, David explains how he approached the recent firestorm in the British pound and how extreme financial and mainstream media views can often signal a dramatic reversal. As was the case for the sterling pairs.
