WHY Flow and price both inside normal ranges (+0.1% on the week) — no crowding signal in this name today.
Momentum from daily closes. Short interest is FINRA’s twice-monthly count of shares actually held short (a standing position), which is a different thing from the daily flow above — days to cover is that position divided by average daily volume.
FLOW VS PRICE — LAST TEN SESSIONS
▬ short-side flow share (left axis) ┄ price (right axis)
Five days of short-side flow share (and close). Red = heavier than this name’s own monthly norm, green = lighter.
HOW WE READ O
Every trading day, FINRA publishes how much of O’s volume traded on the short side. We rank today’s share against this name’s own trailing month (93 sessions of history): today sits at the 41th percentile. Flow is then read with price — heavy short flow into a falling price is pressure; the same flow into a rally is mostly market-maker machinery. Days with volume shocks (earnings, news) are flagged post-shock and never read as clean signals. The result is the state badge above — a description of the crowd, never a buy or sell call.

Green = buyers/long side dominant, red = short side pressing; darker = more crowded. Single days are context — persistence is signal. Full reading guide →
