After dropping to 33-wk low, non-commercials' net shorts in $RUT mini-index futures ↑ 6.8% as of last Tue. Holdings down big past 3 months. This probably helped index stage 8-month-rectangle breakout early this month. But retest failed last wk. Was unable to rally today. $IWM

[hedgopia @hedgopia]

$IWM broke out of 8-month box on Nov 1, before rising another 5% through 8th. Momentum soon petered out; breakout retest failed this week. Things possibly unfolded this way because shorts never quit. No squeeze resulted post-breakout. Short interest inched up p/p mid-Nov. $RUT
