Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock has been on a tear lately, surging 22.74% over the last five trading days and climbing 45.49% in the past month.
Despite being up only 1.22% year-to-date, the stock remains down 10.96% over the past year. The recent rally has put Tesla in the spotlight, prompting investors to question whether there's more room for the stock to run.

This cautious stance, however, hasn't deterred the bullish sentiment driven by technical indicators.
