FINRA Pressure Index - Fix

53
Indicator Description : works on tickers from NYSE / NYSE ARCA / NASDAQ
This indicator measures the intensity of short-selling speculation on a stock or ETF. By comparing the daily Short Volume to its moving average (typically 20 days), it calculates a relative strength ratio:

Ratio = 1.0: Short-selling activity is at its normal baseline.

Ratio > 1.5: An abnormally high level of short-selling activity is detected.

Unlike standard volume, it specifically isolates market participants betting on a price decline.

How to Use It
Short Squeeze (Counter-trend Buy Signal): If the price hits a historical support level while the indicator shows a significant spike (e.g., > 1.8), the market is considered "over-shorted." Even a minor bounce will force short sellers to cover their positions urgently, triggering a violent rally.

Distribution (Caution Signal): If the price stagnates near a resistance level while the FINRA pressure increases day after day, it indicates that "smart money" is accumulating short positions. The uptrend is likely losing steam.
