How TickerBuff reads it
A squeeze setup forms when short positioning, borrow pressure, liquidity, volatility, and price momentum create conditions where covering can accelerate a move. TickerBuff ranks the pressure factors and keeps them tied to current price behavior.
Inputs that matter
- Short interest and float concentration
- Borrow cost and share availability
- Upside price and volume acceleration
- Options positioning near high-gamma strikes
What the signal cannot prove
Elevated pressure does not guarantee a squeeze. Weak demand, dilution, changing borrow availability, or a broad market reversal can invalidate the setup quickly.
