Hello!
Google doesn't yield anything about this issue, so I thought I'd ask here.
When I select any control, in the graph editor is expanded by default. This might seem like a little annoyance, just click the minus button at the top and you're fine; but the real issue is when I select multiple controls. It can get really crazy and I can't spend a good amount of time figuring out which is which and collapse them 1 by 1. How I set the graph editor back to collapsed mode by default?
Let's see if I can attach some images of my issue:
TA;DR: threshold list killed small shorts in January. Big shorts took on their positions. Threshold list restrictions coming for big shorts too. Watch for GME being added to the threshold list.
TL;DR: restrictions associated with extended periods of failures to deliver inform the past six months of GME shenanigans. These restrictions killed the small players who were short GME in January and allowed big players to take on their position. Big players assumed they could use their powers and resources to turn this losing hand into a big win. Apes stopped them. Now, finally, the big players are going to find these same restrictions applied to them - watch for GME being added to the threshold list.
Background
The New York Stock Exchange provides a list of βthreshold securitiesβ, which are securities that are regarded as difficult to borrow due to a large number of recent failures to deliver. When a security is on this list, there are limits on a market maker's ability to short sell the security in question and obligations regarding delivery requirements. These restrictions and obligations can increase the longer the security stays on the list. For further information and some relevant links, please see this comment by u/Criand. There is currently some discussion of this topic because moviestock has been added to the threshold list recently, this post by u/OrwellsWarning presents tweets by u/dlauer and Susanne Trimbath which is a good place to look for discussion of the significance of the threshold list (see the comments).
In short, the ability to perform fucketry is diminished when a security is on the threshold list. u/dlauer tweets that it might be unusual for companies like GME to make it onto this list (usually itβs small companies). This rather underappreciated post by u/mlebjerg provides graphs of the price of moviestock and GME in relation to their being on the threshold list. Notice that the price of moviestock does not appear to be related to their being on the threshold list. Neither does the price of GME, with a notable exception.
Key point
Given the restrictions that come with being on the threshold list and its

0. Preface
Welcome. WELCOME. More patterns. More dates (T+21 dates).
I'm not a financial advisor - I don't provide financial advice. Also, you must be pretty nuts to be listening to a Pomeranian.
I made a post before about the price entering the DANGER ZONE and thought it was above $160. Well, let's revisit that topic because of the interesting price movement we have been getting.
Somebody. PLEASE call Kenny. Marge? You there?
TLDR: Danger Zone part 2
- The price floor continues to rise each T+21 cycle.
- Price goes on a Crabby Move π¦on normal T+21 dates - floor rises about $30 each time.
- Price goes on a Parabolic Move πbetween T+21 dates where major options come into play (January 15, April 16, July 16) - floor rises about $80 each time.
- If the price pattern continues, we should see a $500 floor by January 2022.
- Shorts haven't covered. They post unrealized losses and unrealized gains to mess with you.
- Retail average base cost is (probably) around $156.57. This is most likely the shorter average short price.
- Shorts with an average price of $156.57 would experience 100% loss around $313.14. (Speculative based on data - the real cost could be around $350).
- Shorters are terrified of $300+, there's been a big battle here for a few days, hinting that small short positions are about to hit margin call territory (the Danger Zone).
- The current price momentum in this gamma is much stronger than the previous two gammas of January and March. They're trying desperately to not let it take off.
- The moment one shorter falls, the dominos fall.
- I like the stock. I also like you. π
1. Ever-Rising Price Floor And Projection For The Next Few Cycles
I've been getting pinged a lot on the next T+21 dates and when the next possible parabolic move could be coming. You might say "Past performance is no guarantee of future results" and generally I would agree. But with T+21 consistently occurring and the parabolic moves so far looking like they were triggered by major option dates, I'd say it's a pretty good bet that past performance will guarantee future results.
- Every 21 trading days a price spike occurs. Upon each spike, the clock resets to 0, and you count up 21 trading days following. Note that you must ignore holidays.
- Major options dates appear to drive paraboli
