Gamma Squeeze Mechanics: Why Dealers Accelerate Their Own Pain

A gamma squeeze is a feedback loop. Dealers who have sold Calls must buy the underlying as it rises, their buying lifts the price, and the higher price forces them to buy more. Nobody plans it. It comes out of the hedging rules. AION Analytics research note. Canonical version: https://aionanalytics.in/research/notes/gamma-squeeze
