Should we see price reverse back inside the price channel then traders may have another chance to buy the stock at lower levels. A notable price gap is also seen around the $735.00 level.
Failure to close the gap, and indeed if just a minor pullback occurs, then traders may look to enter around the $760.00 support zone.
Tesla medium-Term Technical Analysis
Looking at the daily time chart, traders will need to move to Fibonacci analysis to get a possible gauge as to where Tesla’s stock price is headed as it reaches for new price discovery.
The 100 percent Fibonacci extension of the Match 2020 low to the August 202 high is currently found around the $925.00 level, and this certainly a valid target.

Looking past $925.00 and $1,000 levels, the 1.168 Fibonacci extension of the mentioned price sequence is located at the $1,189 level.
