HLF-Controlled Burn

HLF's massive short position that was, probably still is in place to some extent, looks like it is being managed by the short sellers who were all on the professional side in a controlled manner, or in other words, it looks like they are using excellent trade management to cover their short, probably buying shares here and there to hedge the moves to the upside, but they never let HLF move in a full on short squeeze, just spurts, that's the trend so if you study it you can probably make some money on it until it ends...

"The trend is your friend until it starts to bend at the end"

 These are mini squeezes, but in a very controlled burn type of way, the overall trend though is up. I'd really like to see how these guys are managing the exit of this trade, I'm sure it's very impressive.

 HLF 1 min this morning, another controlled burn, a surge in volume is always the initial sign.

 The 5 min chart looks like someone accumulated shares, it may even be the shorts covering-it's still buying and these are institutional guys.


The 15 min chart.
