Tesla stock TSLA touched 376 today and is crashing now. Is the sell off real?

TSLA stock is selling off like crazy right now. It reached 376+ today and made an all time high but now trading around 362! Not sure why it is crashing when overall market is still great. Do you know reason why it is dropping today?
In my trading system, it seems like downtrend, only for TSLA stock, not the Tesla company or Tesla cars, has started. (Profitfromprices, U TURN (sell)). Keep a SL at $380.
What do you think? Are you still bullish, or bearish, on TSLA stock? Please note that I am talking about TSLA stock, not Tesla company!
Here is the link to the signal I use.

Sold to open 2 puts of TSLA_103015P212. at $5.45

Not sure why I made this trade... If TSLA- Tesla stock does not move much, most of my Call options will expire worthless :)
One option that is likely to get exercised is Call options expiring today with exercise price of 210! I already have 200 long position in TSLA so hopefully, if that is exercised, this will bring back the position at a lower effective price! Plus, I already have a limit order for selling TSLA call options for next week!

Sold 4 calls of TSLA_102315C227. at $4.50 on 10/19/2015

Tesla is taking me for a ride, is it? I had long positions and it started dropping.. I closed them too soon as I was scared. My game plan was to be net short if it comes back around 230.. It is there now so here is one more short play in Tesla options.. I am a bit scared as it keeps showing strength. I think I should put my emotions on the sideline and stick to what prices are telling me..
All I want is to end this project with 80k in profit. I don't want the ship to sink which is so close to the destination.

What caused a sudden drop in TSLS stock Sold 4 Call options Trade Executed for TSLA 09/25/15 C 00265.000



Today Tesla opened strong and touched a high of around $272. Then suddenly, it started trading low but at one particular moment, it dropped steeply as you can see in the Yahoo Finance intraday 1 day chart. Then stock failed to come up. Seems like there was some news...For me, there was a sudden sell/supply of TSLA..so I wanted to increase my short position. Decided to sold 4 options of TSLA 265 call options and collected around $1500 (-$10 for commission.)
