Shortsqueeze

Options positioning in Tesla has flipped bearishLooking Back on Tesla's 2020 Bull Run Tesla is massively overvalued and has been for a long time. We're talking probably something from 20-100x fair value, to be honest. But Tesla has also continuously moved higher, for several reasons. First, institutions have been systematically gamma-squeezing the stock higher by buying out-of-the-money call options on it. (The story of the Tesla stock run is often told as a story of retail hype, but in fact most of the out-of-the-money call buys have been very large, and when you drill into the data, you find that Tesla is surprisingly not actually a favorite of small retail out-of-the-money call buyers.) Second, there used to be some fairly large short positions open on Tesla. The shorts have gotten squeezed as the stock moved higher and have almost all been forced to cover. Why the Bull Run May Be Over Over the last 30 days, Tesla's average put/call ratio was .67. Yesterday someone opened a very large out-of-the-money put position on Tesla, and today the put/call ratio is 1.3. That represents an extremely bearish shift in options interest, and it suggests that the call options gamma squeeze on Tesla is probably over. The puts are spread across a lot of expiration dates, so this is not just a short-term bet. Someone is banking on Tesla entering a long, slow correction from here. The short squeeze is over too. Short interest on Tesla is now super low, with just one day to cover. In terms of technicals, Tesla has been moving in a large parallel channel and is currently in the top half of the channel, with much more downside than upside. It made two lower highs in February.

🏛GAMESTOP 2.0❗️VIX SHORT SQUEEZE COMING↗️LONG🚀 ☑️VIX is trading above a strong daily level From where is typically surges Up sharply There are two falling resistance levels ahead If first one gets broken the second will be retested Why short squeeze? The short float is at its record highs on VIX According to Morgan Stanley A record flow of retail investors are flooding into VIX ETF's While the number of short positions from institutions is at its pre-covid levels Long VIX idea is circulating around Reddit trading community And as the short selling became the new target for the mass retail investor A sudden surge of long positions might trigger a massive short squeeze With higher and higher call options strikes on VIX ETF's being triggered And more inflows into the ETF following to cover the calls And the ETF's buying VIX contracts responding to the inflows of cash into ETF's That will create a vicious cycle and we might see a significant repricing of the S&P500 options as a result With many institutions hurting massively, more so than from the Game Stop surge.

Finally a support on $CLVSClovis seems to have found a way to raise prices ! The indicators show a bullish divergence on H1 and a chronic delay on the reversal of the trend according to the cycles of Hurst. The patterns of the candles confirm the will of inversion of the trend. If the ascent is confirmed and becomes impetuous with good odds we can see a short squeeze because the percentage of short positions is high and the title has a high delta.

Black Berry- Hindsight Is 20/20 But Lets Hope History RepeatsA person told me that BlackBerry was about to PUMP. I said, "I'm pretty sure it already had a short squeeze". I was then informed that BB is no longer making cellphones but they have become and encryption and technology company. Apparently, they have been working with the Government for sometime. Ironically, this contract and affiliation to the alphabet agencies still pretty under wraps and most people don't know this. Looking at the chart in hindsight I plotted out were we already had an accumulation phase, I have noted the volume pump that indicated a buy signal. Also, noted is the tweezer formation that told us to sell. I have done this for education purposes. What's actually interesting is that there may still be another trade, BB might still be very primed to pump, and to do so off both technicals and fundamentals. We have a clear Wyckoff range and I am willing to bet that this could be re-accumulation before the next big pump. Regardless, of my personal decision to invest, this is not financial advice. Please do your own due diligence and research.

Stitch Fix Pulls BackStitch Fix is in the midst of an explosive rally, and now the shares are pulling back. This chart compares the current pullback with the previous bounce that began on January 12. First, notice that SFIX retraced about half its move between December 7-22. It’s currently relinquished a similar amount (61.8%) of its second move January 12-27. That may suggest the pullback has reached its limit. Second, notice how price stabilized at the 21-day exponential moving average (EMA) in mid-January. It’s currently flattening around the same line. Third, stochastics were oversold before the last bounce and now they’re returning to an oversold condition. Traders might have wanted a deeper pullback toward the December high around $70, but stocks as bullish as SFIX don’t always oblige. It also has significant short interest (19 percent of the float in mid-January). TradeStation is a pioneer in the trading industry, providing access to stocks, options, futures and cryptocurrencies.

GME 226.42% short interest! (Surely after the squeeze)Hello, here I am updating you on the GME short story before anyone else (I got connections). The FINRA updated the numbers. I don't know, maybe this is some kind of error? 226%! It's USO Oil all over again... They're tearing retail to pieces. finra-markets.morningstar.com A whole lot of novices got really excited AFTER Melvin got squeezed. Tried to warn them but they were too riled up. They won a fight, felt empowered, then they overextended (overstayed their welcome) and got all mowed down. "We're sticking it to the man", the man is up 80% on his short and probably locked in profit already. AMC SI is down, from 78% to 38%, it did not get the "we're beating Wall Street" attention GME had so random novices did not get in throwing money at Wall St shorts. finra-markets.morningstar.com As always, the "little guy" is late to the party. I got called a "boomer" with a "boomer mentality" for not fomoing in, and laughed at for wanting to short sell... This time short sellers have an extremely expensive entry, and I'm sure they have loads of cash behind them, retail won't push the price to $5000 and squeeze them. I wonder why the price gapped after Melvin got liquidated. Short sellers noticing the crowd euphoria and baiting them? They took the bait so hard. I wonder if regulators, and congress which is investigating Robinhood will be able to figure that one out? It probably won't cross their minds that billions were made shorting the stock at the top when it suspiciously gapped up, and then buying was halted. They have no clue so we might never find out. They're stuck on thinking "short sellers bad", "refuse to lose", "Robinhood stopped trading to stop the squeeze". That's the dogma now. Maybe these many short sellers shorted "early", and they did want to stop the squeeze, and maybe not in which case good luck convincing the mindless herd of dogma addicts that the truth is something else. Let's take a moment to remember Oil: Robinhood bagholders did not even hold it (noobs rush to close at breakeven or tiny profit when it goes their way, and diamond hands hold when they lose), so what was the point of USO? It was just some "TA" ticker on a phone app to them? They could have bought a future with a 6, 12, 24 months expiry, that terrible ETF has heavily underperformed Oil, it was a good short (and long Oil future obviously - one with backwardation is that was available). Back then you also had the novices that thought they were geniuses that spotted $1 Oil barrels and thought for some odd reason no one else wanted to buy those. Boy did they learn their lesson when it went to -40! Wall Street is Muhammad Ali, dancing around, teasing retail, and all these novices are his many angry opponents that rage at never being able to hit. Nothing will ever change. Low skill, low knowledge, high excitation (emotional) players will keep losing, pros will keep winning, it's like the laws of gravity.
