I exited my $TSLA position, but I want to be clear:
I’m still extremely bullish on Tesla over the long term.
My framework expects a potential rejection around $380 to $400, so I’m following my system as a trader.
Honestly, I hope I’m completely wrong.
That doesn’t mean I’m bearish on the company or its future.
I’d rather see everyone holding long term profit from a generational breakout, even if it means I miss the move.
Just closed my $TSLA position for a +22% gain in about a month.
I’m still extremely bullish on this name, but I closed for two reasons:
1. The internal structure remains bearish.
We’re still printing lower highs on the daily and weekly timeframes. Within my framework, I expect a potential rejection between $380 and $420.
That could lead to another selloff into the institutional buy zone, where I’d look to go long again.
2. Profit velocity was strong.
We reached a solid profit in a short period of time. I’m comfortable leaving some upside on the table.
I have plenty of other trades to focus on. If $TSLA pulls a 2020-style move and I miss a triple-digit gain, that’s fine. I’m sticking to my rules.
To be clear, I’m not bearish on $TSLA over the longer term.
Fundamentally, I believe Tesla’s time is coming. But I need to follow my process.
Over the next 12 to 24 months, I could easily see $TSLA back at $520 to $600.
