RE:RE:Oupss my badBest way to do it is to understand their strategy, they hide their shorting volume by shorting and closing out the short between reporting periods(right now). The 15th and 30th (or eom in febs case, because there isn't a 30th) are reporting periods where member brokerage firms report the total amount of shorts active on those two days for all securities on all exchanges. So when you look up shorts, it will show the amount shorted and the net difference from the last report 15 days prior. Everything in between is a blind, you and I see nothing. Shorters use this strategy to confuse retail investors, to scare them with big selling volume down into the bid which pushes the price down and in an attempt to incite a sell-off. So essentially as long as they short today and buy back before friday you'll never find is on any report. Now when a stock is running up like ours is its normal for a sell-off to happen because there is always profit taking, what they do is short alongside that profit taking to accelerate the run down and hopefully create panic. But in the end its a net zero game, they HAVE to buy back, and part of that strategy is to buy back before the reporting period on the 28th so you don't know what theyre up to, thats why guys Ike me call it out every two weeks when verified and his other basher accounts magically show up like clockwork because hes obviously closing out his short and the price will inevitably rebound. so you'll read the report like you have been and think "hmm doesn't seem to be any shorting going on" and thats exactly what they're after, and the next time they try to push the price down maybe you'll panic and sell, and it'll be into their buy back bids.
