"I think a lot of them are having to buy the shares because the pps is putting up a heck of a fight staying where it is."

Then why would you in heavens name buy back? And on top off that incur extra trading cost to resell again? and then again sell shares to cover? huh?
(profitable short positions generates interest income besides the trading profit and extra trading margin)

"So then once they have bought the shares they take another short posistion and try to sell their shares cheap to try to cover their new position"

let me get this clear.

1) existing profitable short position is closed
2) sell again, thus creating new short position
3) sell again to cover?
