When short positions pile up, the squeeze gets real. Imagine tons of traders betting on a price drop, then suddenly the market flips—forced liquidations kick in, prices spike hard, and shorts get crushed. It's chaos. Understanding these dynamics matters if you're trading on any exchange or monitoring market movements. The bigger the short interest, the wilder things can get when sentiment shifts.

Short position accumulation can really wipe people out; I've seen so many people get liquidated overnight.

Short squeeze has really happened too many times, and every time it's bloodshed.
