European FSD approval boosts sentiment amid regulatory focus this week

Tesla received official approval from the Dutch regulator RDW for its Full Self-Driving (FSD) Supervised system under UN Regulation 171, marking the Netherlands as the first European country to grant such authorization following more than 18 months of rigorous testing by the company. Tesla subsequently launched FSD Subscriptions in the region, introducing a mandatory on-screen safety quiz for owners. This approval opens the door for wider adoption in Europe and highlights continued regulatory engagement with Tesla's autonomous technology.

Weekly oversold signals and resistance cap Tesla’s medium-term momentum

On the weekly chart, Tesla shows continued weakness with its price below both the MA-20 and MA-50, reinforcing a bearish medium-term view, while holding above the MA-200 supports a bullish long-term trend. Weekly oscillators indicate oversold conditions: RSI stands at 35.77, Stochastic RSI and CCI are both in 'oversold' territory, and MACD signals a bearish bias with weak trend strength according to the ADX. Bull/Bear Power also remains negative, confirming dominant seller activity. Key weekly support lies near $323, with main resistance at $380.

Sideways range expected next week as indicators limit breakout risk

For the next five trading days, Tesla is expected to continue sideways movement within a range of $323 to $380, in line with recent weekly volatility of 8.08%. Upside breakouts are unlikely, as none of the major weekly indicators are signaling a buy. The baseline outlook is for further consolidation around current levels unless a decisive move through $380 triggers a bullish shift, while a break below $323 would likely accelerate selling pressure if negative momentum persists.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, notes that Tesla’s price action over the past week was marked by sideways consolidation and persistent selling pressure, supported by a technical setup that remains weak below both the MA-20 and MA-50. Despite a modest weekly gain, he points out that momentum indicators such as RSI and MACD remain bearish and highlight oversold conditions, underscoring the fragility of any upward movement. Kharitonov sees the recent regulatory progress in Europe — specifically the Dutch approval of Tesla’s Full Self-Driving system — as a positive development for the company’s long-term outlook, however, this has not yet translated into renewed buying interest or changed the technical picture for the coming week. With volatility at 8.08% and critical support and resistance levels at $323 and $380 respectively, the analyst believes the base case is continued range-bound trading unless one of these boundaries is decisively broken. He maintains a defensive stance in the absence of clear bullish signals from any of the main weekly indicators. "As long as Tesla remains trapped below $380, I remain cautious and see no reason to expect a sustainable rebound in the coming week."

Earlier, analysts noted that Tesla was facing sustained bearish momentum amid persistent negative technical signals and ongoing operational uncertainties. The current consolidation phase—combined with regulatory progress in autonomous driving—reinforces a cautious stance, with market participants advised to monitor $323 as a crucial support level for signs of renewed downside acceleration.
