Take a look at the 1-year chart of Tesla (Nasdaq: TSLA) below with my added notations:

Over the last 5 months TSLA has created a key level of support at $220 (blue), which was also a prior resistance, and that level was also the “neckline” support for the stock’s head and shoulders (H&S) reversal pattern. Above the neckline you will notice the H&S pattern itself (red).
Remember, patterns such as an H&S need to confirm to have the meaning that they imply. Confirmation of the H&S occurred when TSLA broke below its $220 support.
The Tale of the Tape: TSLA has confirmed a head & shoulders pattern. A short trade could be entered anywhere near $220 with a stop placed above that level. A break back above $220 could negate the forecast for a move lower, thus a long position could be considered instead.
