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.
