And they are instantly removing them after placing them and the price running up abit in front. Its very weird.

Who ever is doing it at Bitstamp wants to buy.

Look at the amount of shorts on Finex, around the highest amount we ever have had at these price levels:

A short squeeze could be comming up if prices doesn't go down soon.

There aren't many shorts. If you take the difference between what I shorted today and what was short yesterday, there is about 200 btc in additional shorts.

Meanwhile, there are A LOT more longs on margin than shorts. And its more expensive too. I can basically short for free.

Exactly. This is also how I understand the Bitfinex data. Btw, being leveraged long now puzzles me  Huh
