Built this to help me identify short squeeze opportunities. Meant to be used on daily chart, but can be used on lower time frame for earlier visual alerts.
Its based on shares outstanding and volume. It calculates how much days it took to trade the entire shares outstanding.
The green bars are how many actual days it took to trade the entire shares outstanding. The purple bars is the current days volume with calculations to determine how many days it would take to trade the shares outstanding at that volume.
The lower the green/purple bars the better. Where there is a black background, both green/purple bars are below the lookback period. Default lookback period for alert is 10 days. If a stock trades the entire shares outstanding in less than 10 days, a black background appears.

Found inconsistent/incorrect/outdated data in the financial() function here on TradingView. Grossly underestimated outstanding shares in recently merged spacs like FSR and Lucid Motors. I provided the option to override. You only have to fill in one of the two settings for it to override what provided by TradingView with data you can find publicly or through SEC filings.
