ShortData

Exact stock and ETF listings with the largest daily short volume for a single trading day, sorted by short volume descending by default. Volumes cover FINRA-reported off-exchange facility trades only, so a 40-50% short percentage is the normal baseline. Pass sortBy=shortPercent with a minTotalVolume floor to rank by short intensity instead of raw size.
