Risk Summary

Risk conditions are elevated. Recent price strength may be less stable if selling pressure increases.This indicator is intended as a risk filter, not a directional signal. A High or Extreme reading does not predict an immediate move, but suggests that if prices weaken, downside reactions may be more pronounced.

Why Price Reactions May Be Stronger?

Elevated short crowding (short interest as a share of float is above normal). In the latest reporting period, short interest continues to increase. Average trading volume is weakening, indicating contracting liquidity. As a result, similar news or market events could lead to price moves about 3× larger than usual.

Note: Short interest data is reported every two weeks by FINRA. The most recent snapshot is 2026-01-15 (ET).
Because this data updates slowly, it is not intended to predict short-term price moves. Instead, it helps describe longer-term market structure and where pressure may be building if prices begin to move.
