Squeeze Radar

33

Elevated short interest becomes most interesting when price strength forces shorts to defend or cover.

Bearish Conviction

11

Rising short interest alongside weak trend can mean the bearish trade is being reinforced, not trapped.

Crowding

27

Latest short interest is 4.0M shares and days to cover is 4.77.

Divergence

0

Short interest fell while price rose. The bearish trade appears to be unwinding into strength.
