How to Scan for Short Squeeze Stocks BEFORE They Move

by | Feb 19, 2025

The market has been dead, with the S&P 500 doing a whole lot of nothing. But that doesn’t mean traders can’t find action. The real money is flowing into high-beta, heavily shorted stocks — because that’s where the biggest moves are happening.  

If you’re not using tools like the News Flow Scanner, Penny Options Dashboard or even free resources like Finviz, you’re trading blind. Today, I walked through exactly how I identify these explosive setups before they take off. Here’s what you need to know:  

🔥 How to Screen for Short Squeeze Stocks — Use Finviz to filter for stocks with over 5% short float and high volume. Anything above 10% is even better.  

🚀 Recent Trades & Watchlist — Stocks like Super Micro (SMCI), Grab (GRAB), Soundhound (SOUN), Sofi (SOFI), and Intel (INTC) have been making huge moves.  

📊 Why the Indexes Aren’t Cutting It — With no yield or returns in the S&P 500, traders are flocking to individual high-beta names.  

💡 Master Indicator Signals — My proprietary tool has been nailing these trades by spotting breakouts before the volume floods in.  

🔎 The Psychology of Short Squeezes — When everyone is betting against a stock, I look for the opposite move — and that’s where the biggest returns happen.
