Sold at 447 looking to buy soon 🚗 Tesla Volatility Is My Playground: Trading the News, Not the Noise 📉📈

Tesla (TSLA) never fails to dominate headlines—whether it’s a Robotaxi launch in Austin, or a high-profile political fallout between Elon Musk and President Trump. But while others get caught in the narrative whirlwind, I quietly work my edge:

“Buy on bad news, sell on good news.”

Even with just 1 full share or a fractional piece, Tesla’s typical 20–30% price swings are enough to generate hundreds of dollars in SGD gains. 💰

I recently sold at $447 on another platform, pocketed the profits, then withdrew and topped up my Tiger account to prepare for the next round. I treat Tesla not as a forever hold, but as a sentiment-driven trading vehicle, allowing me to ride the waves of fear and greed without emotional attachment.

With the Robotaxi announcement looming, I’m already seeing the setup for a classic “sell the news” reaction. Hype builds, price spikes—then reality sets in. If it drops again? That’s when I re-enter. 📊

🧠 Answering the Big Questions:

1️⃣ Can Robotaxi Launch Comfort Tesla?

Yes, it could give Tesla short-term bullish momentum—especially if markets believe in its long-term autonomy narrative. But unless the launch is more than a PR event and shows real traction, I treat it as a short-term pop to reduce exposure. I’ll sell into the rally, and re-buy if reality pulls it back.

2️⃣ Is There Still a Chance for Trump and Musk to Reconcile?

Yes—both are pragmatic and capable of putting ego aside for mutual interest, especially around American jobs and manufacturing. But politics is unpredictable. Any alignment would be fragile, and Musk’s independence may prevent him from towing a party line for long. Reconciliation is possible, but I’m not betting on it.

3️⃣ Did Their Fallout Introduce New Policy Risks for Tesla?

Definitely. Musk’s political stance, if perceived as combative or partisan, could jeopardize Tesla’s standing with lawmakers. Regulatory support and government contracts are crucial for EV infrastructure. Any friction could introduce new policy headwinds, especially in states where clean energy policy is politically influenced. I factor this into my trades.

4️⃣ What’s Your Take on Musk’s Political Capital Turning into Political Liability?

It’s a double-edged sword. Musk’s fame fuels Tesla’s brand—but it also brings unnecessary controversy. When his personal views begin to polarize key demographics or politicians, it adds risk. For me, it’s another reason to trade Tesla tactically—sell when sentiment is euphoric, buy when the drama creates irrational fear.

Final Thought:

Tesla isn’t just an automaker—it’s a trading vehicle powered by narrative. I don’t marry the stock, I dance with its volatility. ⚡📈 Let the media speculate. I’ll be booking profits.
