I would wait until you get a few red dots to consider it a valid squeeze. Here is a squeeze in Netflix (NFLX) from August 11th to the 18th of 2021, as indicated by a series of red dots. It also means a move greater than the options prices have priced in. This “greater than expected move” means a 2 to 3 ATR move as indicated by the “ Average True Range” indicator. When the dots become green again, it indicates that the squeeze had just “fired,” releasing its built-up energy causing the stock to make a “greater than expected” move (up or down). The red dots indicate that a squeeze is on - energy is building up under compression. The free version on ThinkOrSwim and Barchart has only the red dots and the green dots and may be labeled as “TTM_Squeeze.” “TTM” stands for “Trade the Markets,” which was John’s company before it was rebranded to “ Simpler Trading.” In both their presentations, they are using the “Pro” version of the indicator where there are additional “black” (low-compression) and “orange” (high-compression) dots. Taylor buys on squeeze signals only when the stock is in an obvious uptrend and price is above and close to the 21-day moving average. Traders can also use the 10, 20, and 50 moving averages. John buys after waiting for five “dots” of the squeeze, and if the price is above the 21 moving average and the other 8, 21, 34, 55, and 89 moving averages are stacked in order. You need to be more selective and wait for additional market conditions. Like all indicators, you cannot just take every squeeze signal.
