TSLA: Stock View + FCN Structure 1. Stock View TSLA is trading around the $340 area, still inside a large multi-year triangle. The positive is that price recently tested the rising support around $295–310 and bounced, suggesting buyers are still defending the long-term uptrend. However, TSLA has not yet broken the descending resistance from its ~$499 high.

My call: Cautiously bullish. Accumulate around current levels, add closer to $300 if support holds
