Short Interest

Short squeeze candidates ranked by SI/float, days to cover, and borrow fees

Overview

Short Interest tracks heavily shorted stocks to identify potential short squeeze candidates. It analyzes short interest metrics including SI/Float ratio, days to cover, borrow fee rates, and combines them into a squeeze probability score.

Key Metrics

Metric	Description	What to Watch
SI/Float %	Percentage of float shares sold short	Above 15% is considered high
Days to Cover	Trading days to close all short positions at avg volume	Above 5 days signals crowded short
Borrow Fee	Annualized cost to borrow shares for shorting	High fees indicate scarce shares
Squeeze Score	Composite metric combining all short interest factors	Higher = more squeeze factors aligned

How to Use

●Sort by Squeeze Score to find the most squeeze-prone stocks
●High SI/Float combined with high Days to Cover indicates maximum squeeze potential
●Monitor borrow fee trends; rising fees suggest increasing short pressure
●Cross-reference with volume data to identify potential squeeze triggers

Warning

Short squeeze plays carry significant risk. These are high-volatility situations that can move sharply in either direction. This data is informational only.

Combining with Other Tools

●Cross-reference with Volume Alerts — sudden volume spikes on high-SI stocks may indicate a squeeze beginning
●Check Options Flow for unusual call buying on squeeze candidates — call sweeps can accelerate squeezes via gamma
●Use Dark Pool data to see if institutions are quietly accumulating shares of heavily shorted stocks
●Monitor Hot Options for puts being closed (short covering on the options side)
