With the recent acceleration in the Tesla share price after the company announced better than expected delivery results, investors will look to see how this translates to the bottom line.

Chart Life
The price action exploded in December 2019 above the 382.03 level and has gone parabolic to all-time highs. We might see a throwback to the 505.94 support level, which will be a critical level to watch in the short term.
If the support level does not hold, we might expect the price action to target lower levels. We might see the price action push even higher if the earnings report delivers a surprise beat in earnings.

Seasonality might also be a tell-tale sign of what to expect as cyclical factors do influence a company's share price. With Tesla, one might expect it to under perform at the start of the year and then gain positive momentum for the rest of the annual cycle.
