Recent Cost Distribution Last updated: 2026-03-25 (ET)

This reading is based on the last 20 trading days of 15-minute price, volume, and VWAP data. Price is only slightly below the recent estimated cost basis of 91.81. Price is in the lower half of the main cost band (90.96 to 92.03), so price support and pullback behavior matter more than immediate upside follow-through. Roughly 75% of recent positioning remains under water, so rebound attempts can still run into supply from trapped holders. From a trading point of view, the most useful read is to compare price with the main cost band first, because there is no especially clear nearby support or overhead cluster right now.

Why Price Reactions May Be Stronger?

Days-to-Cover is elevated versus its own history, but absolute short interest remains moderate. In the latest reporting period, short interest continues to increase. Adaptive thresholds applied to liquidity weakness, near-high detection, and compression sensitivity. As a result, similar news or market events could lead to price moves about 1× larger than usual.


Note: Short interest data is reported every two weeks by FINRA. The most recent snapshot is 2026-02-27 (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.
