Short volume is not a good indicator of the SI percent because block trades between tutes, whether they are buys or sells can get added to that volume. So short volume doesn't necessarily represent how many shares were actually sold short that day. Also day traders open and close short positions throughout the day. This artificially inflates the short volume as well.
