Put Options Supported Tesla's Stock Post Earnings

[ad_1]

Tesla Reports Strong Fundamental Earnings

On Wednesday, October 19th, Tesla reported its Q3’22 earnings. Overall, Tesla showed substantial progress, with more than 50% revenue growth and nearly 70% earnings growth, as the company delivered a record number of vehicles in the third quarter.

However, even though the earnings were impressive, Tesla’s (TSLA) shares dropped by more than 6% because their results fell short of some analyst estimates. Specifically, on Thursday, the stock traded close to $200 until it found price support. At SpotGamma, we believe Tesla bounced off this level because the stock found support at the SpotGamma Hedge Wall of $200.

Put Options Supported Tesla at $200

At SpotGamma, we identify key option levels in stocks and indexes by analyzing the areas with the largest concentrations of option gamma and applying our proprietary algorithms. In this case, Tesla had significant buying pressure at $200, as shown below by our Equity Hub model.
