đŸ”„ Short squeeze: when the bears eat themselves

Imagine a line for the last bag of buckwheat at the store. Everyone’s sure the price will drop, so they keep pushing it down, down, down.

And then the price suddenly — bam! — shoots up 🚀

Short sellers panic and close their positions, which means buying so they don’t lose their deposits. That buying pushes the price even higher.

It becomes a snowball effect: the more shorts panic, the harder the price pumps. That’s a short squeeze.

A long squeeze is the opposite. Everyone has piled into longs, sure it’s going to the moon 🌕, but then the price suddenly drops. Long traders panic-sell, pushing it even lower.

A squeeze isn’t about a trend. It’s about a crowd panicking and making the move against them even stronger.

🧠 Whales love this: trapping the crowd and watching it cut itself to pieces.

💡 A squeeze isn’t market magic—it’s the effect of mass panic with leverage.
