About BUYINS.NET
WWW.BUYINS.NET is a service designed to help bonafide shareholders of
publicly traded US companies fight naked short selling. Naked short
selling is the illegal act of short selling a stock when no affirmative
determination has been made to locate shares of the stock to
hypothecate in connection with the short sale. Buyins.net has built a
proprietary database that uses Threshold list feeds from NASDAQ, AMEX
and NYSE to generate detailed and useful information to combat the
naked short selling problem. For the first time, actual trade by trade
data is available to the public that shows the attempted size, actual
size, price and average value of short sales in stocks that have been
shorted and naked shorted. This information is valuable in determining
the precise point at which short sellers go out-of-the-money and start
losing on their short and naked short trades.
BUYINS.NET has built a massive database that collects, analyzes and
publishes a proprietary SqueezeTrigger for each stock that has been
shorted, www.buyins.net/squeezetrigger.pdf. The SqueezeTrigger database
of nearly 1,850,000,000 short sale transactions goes back to January 1,
2005, and calculates the exact price at which the Total Short Interest
is short in each stock. This data was never before available prior to
January 1, 2005, because the Self Regulatory Organizations (primary
exchanges) guarded it aggressively. After the SEC passed Regulation
SHO, exchanges were forced to allow data processors like Buyins.net to
access the data.
The SqueezeTrigger database collects individual short trade data on
over 7,000 NYSE, AMEX and NASDAQ stocks and general short trade data on
nearly 8,000 OTCBB and PINKSHEET stocks. Each month the database grows
by approximately 50,000,000 short sale transactions and provides
investors with the knowledge necessary to time when to buy and sell
stocks with outstanding short positions. By tracking the size and price
of each month's short transactions, BUYINS.NET provides institutions,
traders, analysts, journalists and individual investors the exact price
point where short sellers start losing money.
