TSLA: Bullish Pennant Compression Ahead of Q3 EarningsTesla, Inc.BATS:TSLATaxpayerTradesTSLA is looking really interesting here on the daily chart as it coils up right underneath resistance. We've got a classic bullish pennant forming after a strong impulsive run-up, and price action is getting tighter by the day. Here is how I am breaking down both sides of the setup: The Bullish Case (Continuation) If buyers can force a confirmed daily close breaking out above the upper trendline around $380.10, it opens the door for a strong continuation toward the $505.42 measured move target (derived from the initial flagpole). The Zeiierman Trend Pressure indicator is showing a nice cool-off in wave pressure, which usually highlights volatility compression right before a strong expansion. Plus, with Q3 earnings coming up on October 21 following a solid vehicle delivery beat, fundamental tailwinds are supporting the bulls. The Bearish Case (Risks & Fakeouts) We have to respect the downside, though. Pennants can easily turn into bull traps if broader market sentiment rolls over or if resistance holds firm. If sellers step in and push price back down through the lower trendline support at $346.77, it completely invalidates the pattern and could signal a deeper pullback or consolidation phase. The Trade Plan: Trigger/Entry: ~$380.10 (looking for confirmation) Stop Loss: $346.77 (tightly managed below pattern support) Price Target: $505.42 (~4.0 Risk-to-Reward) *As always, manage your risk and trade your own plan! Are you leaning long here or waiting for a confirmation candle?*
