Hi zaxbowow; I think that what I call a short squeeze
is what everybody else calls a "buy in". What I call a short
covering panic is what everybody else calls a "short squeeze".

I could try to make everybody else change their definitions,
but you know, it seems things would be easier if I just used
their terms... So here goes...

Okay. "Short squeeze" means when the short sellers have
to buy due to fear or margin pressure.
