Shortsqueeze
Serious Bullish Divergence on BTCUSD!Hey Traders,
As you can see on the 4HR candles of BTCUSD (Bitcoin). Not only was there a massive liquidation, but there was a massive short squeeze. Approximately in the last 4 hours, near $40M shorts were liquidated. (20x-50x) Shorts. About $1-2B Market Value worth. Now on the divergence, the price has been going in a downtrend while the strength of the oscillator has been trending up.
$lmnd reporting good earnings?A recent wedge i've noticed in lemonade stock could show that lemonade will have a rise in price around the end of February. This will likely be due to better than expected earnings but in the absolute best case scenario would be due to a tesla partnership which was sort of danced around in the last earnings call.

What does GameStop’s share split mean for the short squeeze?2022 is looking like a year of stock splits as companies seek to make their shares more appealing for retail investors. Following Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL), Amazon's (NASDAQ: AMZN) and Tesla's (NASDAQ:TSLA) recent split announcements, GameStop (NYSE:GME) followed suit, hinting at plans for its first stock split in 15 years.
The American video game retailer, which has become a favorite “meme stock” among retail investors, disclosed in an SEC filing during aftermarket hours on Thursday that it plans to implement a stock split of its class A shares in the form of a stock dividend.
GameStop said it plans to boost its share count to 1 billion from 300 million, indicating that it would carry out a three-for-1 stock split, giving existing shareholders two more shares for every share they hold in the company. The plan is still subject to shareholder approval at the company’s annual meeting.
The company’s stock, which surged to its 2022 peak of $189.59 on March 28, jumped 15% in premarket trading on Friday following the news before paring gains to close 0.8% lower on the New York Stock Exchange.
Compared with Apple and Amazon, whose share prices have hovered around $3,000 in recent months, and Tesla’s stock price that closed at over $1,000 on Friday, GameStop’s stock is relatively more affordable for mom-and-pop investors and those that are riding on a new investment trend that has become popular during the COVID-19 pandemic.
GameStop to the moon
GameStop is among the most favorite meme stocks on Reddit forums like the wildly popular subreddit WallStreetBets where users discuss the next stock to pump up. Investors piled into GameStop’s stock in January 2021, sending its shares skyrocketing 400% week on week on Jan. 29, 2021, to an all-time high of $325.
This caused a short squeeze in GameStop stocks in a blow to short sellers that collectively lost about $13 billion, according to estimates by financial analytics firm S3 Partners. Market watchers also attributed the spike in GameStop’s shares to hedge funds that made substantial profits from the short squeeze.
GameStop’s stock has since fallen 49% since that peak as of Friday, April 1, as many investors are unable to justify the company's stock price given its poor financials.
GameStop's financials fail to keep up
In the recent fiscal year ended Jan. 29, GameStop booked $381 million in net loss, 77% wider than its $215 million loss in 2020. Revenue, however, climbed to $6.01 billion from $5.09 billion the previous year. Prior to the short squeeze in January 2021, there had been rumors that GameStop may be going out of business as the company announced store closures and logged millions of dollars in debt.
“This greed by the short sellers to have GameStop go bankrupt — ironically, they now saved GameStop for probably forever,” Justin Dopierala, founder of DOMO Capital, was quoted by Digital Trends as saying.
With the money raised from the securities market, GameStop could turn its business around. The company recently disclosed plans to foray into non-fungible tokens or NFTs by the end of the second quarter of fiscal year 2022.
Risky bet for short sellers
For short sellers, GameStop’s planned stock split would force them to buy additional shares before they return their loaned shares.
As the company plans to carry out its stock split by issuing a stock dividend, shareholders who lend their shares to short sellers are still entitled to the dividend from GameStop, while the short seller will have to either repurchase the share before the ex dividend date or pay a dividend to the other party that acquired the shorted stock.
ZOM upside potentialZomedica Corp. (ZOM) was one of the top meme stocks of 2021.
i think a bounce to 0.51 and 0.90 resistance levels is still possible.
Looking forward to read your opinion about it.
ACB Short Squeeze! 70% short ratio! 👉Why $ACB short squeeze is the Next $gme $amc ACB has over 20 million short shares, and with daily short volume above 50% (yesterday was 70%❗) this means it's just the shorts trading with the shorts. (shorts are selling to another short that's covering⚠️) and with the stock near historic lows, it's due for a massive rip/ short squeeze up.
-Market cap is slightly above cash levels, so it's dirt cheap
-recent acquisition makes the company instantly positive ebidta
-breaking out of long term falling wedge
-near all time lows
-yahoo message boards full of short bashers (indicating lots of shorts to be squeezed)
Load up a few shares
$NILE about to squeeze the new shorts out?Let's talk about this badly beaten down stock.
First off I would call this a TRADE & not a investment to start off with IMO.
As you can see in the past few days this has gotten quite a bit of short volume on this ticker. The hype on $Nile is coming in.
I would like to see it hit .75- $1.00 first, then we will see where this can go from there once the volume comes in.
GME GameStop quarterly loss on supply concernsNet sales $2.254 billion VS $2.122 billion in Q4 of 2020 VS $2.194 billion same Q 2019.
Net loss of $147.5 million, or $1.94 per share VS a profit of $80.5 million, or $1.19 per share las year.
My buy area is $48 - $69.
I expect a bounce from that strong support.
GME Accumulation PhaseUpdate for my previous chart with a pattern fix and some more detail on how I plan to trade the accumulation phase and do some nice compound trading in a retirement account. Will likely stop posting new charts and just keep updating my trades here on this chart so be sure to follow.
Watching KAVLKavl is pretty interesting. it clearly did its first accumulation and is holding a pretty nice pennant.
The borrow fee is 588% which is extremely high. Shorting this is very very difficult.
The short is over 30% of the float at 100% utilization.
I think we could see more action here in either direction but something tells me it has strong squeeze power. Its vape stock, that just got its FDA approval back, which was revoked due to fruit flavor "bidi stocks"
GME GameStop consolidation areaAfter GME went even lower than the exacted support line:
Now we need to keep in mind that $90 is a great entry price in case of a selloff due to market condition and increasing of interest rates.
GME is now in a high volume consolidation area, slightly bullish in my opinion.
The ETH market is in the Phase 3 (Short-squeeze) of bulls attackThe breakout of ETH market happened as we expected and the ETH price had risen rapidly more than 10% in the past few day.
The order of strong bulls attack (ETH price may up to new high) including 5 Phase. Now we are in the phase 3 (KD 50 -> KD70-80, and KD>70 more than 3 days) that I mentioned in my previous articles.

Phase 3 (Short squeeze). KD 50 -> KD70-80, and KD>70 more than 3days:
Market makers carry out the strong short-squeeze ( bullish ), and price rise rapidly. The fuel of short-squeeze decreasing as price rising (see the funding rates).
Wonderful performance may be coming! Good luck!
Ps: If you want to understand the complete process of strong bulls attack (5 steps), please check my previous articles :D.

My Daily Short Volume Indicator (1st on TradingView)Hi all,
Given the recent attention to short interest, short volume, short everything - I'm publishing this analysis about what my indicator does and does NOT do since I've already been getting a few questions about it.
Terminology:
Short Volume = the number of shares opened *or* closed short in a given day.
(Unfortunately, this data does not exist intraday for retail usage from exchanges. If you want intraday, you WILL have to buy this for an extremely expensive monthly subscription.)
Short Interest = the number of shares currently open which are held short against a specific stock / ticker.
(This is only reported by the exchanges twice monthly and has a two week lag - 2021 schedule here: www.finra.org)
Short Float = the percentage of shares currently open short / the number of shares currently float (float = in market circulation) in that stock.
Introduction:
Quandl supplies a daily total volume and short volume dataset for two main exchanges - NYSE & NASDAQ.
This indicator aggregates both of those so you have everything which is publicly and easily available via Quandl BUT and this is a big BUT:
** There are lots of other exchanges which are not included in this indicator, i.e. there are lots of other places that traders can open and close shorts outside of those two exchanges **
This indicator should be consider a sample of the market. A soft-indicator, not an exhaustive data resource.
Walkthrough:
This indicator has 3 main settings currently:
Shs Outstanding
Daily Short Volume
Short Volume Ratio
When I'm screening a stock in a potential short squeeze (Example GME, other great examples are KNDI, KODK, etc.) - what I'm looking for is:
Has the dilution changed since the last major squeeze event? (most squeezers are repeat squeezers)
What has the short volume been looking like lately?
What is the ratio of short volume to long volume lately?
Each of those settings on this indicator attempt to answer those questions and those questions only.
For instance, when using the Daily Short Volume indicator - I'm able to see the early squeeze around the 20 mark on GME and try to analyze further if there's potential for a re-squeeze (new shorts who entered at 20 get squeezed by higher prices etc.)
And when using the short volume ratio - I'm trying to predict how MUCH of the move can be attributed to short volume (opening or closing). In this case, it looks like no more than 25% was due to short volume on the NYSE / NASDAQ which is pretty significant compared to something like the KODK move in July 2020 which was pure long day trading on a small float with news catalyst.
VS.

Hope this helps you find your Gamestonk before it happens next time.
