TSLA Symmetrical Triangle Break Weekly Options Play

ที่อัปเดต:
Description
TSLA Began the formation of this Symmetrical Triangle after achieving an ATH @ 1243.49.

The Symmetrical Triangle is a common congestion pattern, typically indicative of continuations, accompanied by descending volume (on chart) and a heavy volume on the breakout.
My point of contention with this pattern is okay volume on the breakout. It is only slightly above average when calculated on a 60 day period, or slightly below on a 30 day period.
Although there is generally no advance indication of breakout direction, an indication can be what other stocks are doing - making bearish breaks through major trendlines and support levels since FEB - MAR of this year.

The resulting price move implied by the pattern is equal to price move that preceded the pattern.
So depending on where the measurement starts, the breakout, once confirmed, implies a 330 point minimum to a 680 point maximum move to the downside.
Intermediate price targets: 900, 775 and throwbacks to the triangle's apex are common @ ~1100.
  • My intermediate price targets are above the pattern-implied price targets due to the expiration of the position.

The Trade
BUY

12/23 900P

R/R & Breakevens vary on fill.
The price target is the support at 900, which is above the break-even at expiration, so the primary objective of the position is to capitalize on a quick downward move in TSLA stock price and profit on the increase in time value premium.
For those who didn't short @ 1200:
An ATM, further dated Long Put would serve the objective of the position better if it is within your risk tolerance.
Or an ATM synthetic short if you have the ability to sell naked options.
And without the ability to short effectively or sell naked options, an ITM put would serve best, if within your risk tolerance.
If you want me to build these positions, just ask.

Crazy throw back directly to Apex of pattern.
My bets are off, but if they were on, they would not be long.
