     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     VLYF       $-0.110      -6.88%       30,993          27.56%       81,462          72.44%       -50,469         -4,588  
     NPD        $-0.330      -8.51%       185,556         46.73%       200,347         50.46%       -14,791         -448    
     IRE        $-0.140      -8.86%       11,310,950      43.93%       13,115,804      50.93%       -1,804,854      -128,918
     PSTI       $-0.100      -7.46%       53,528          21.12%       199,884         78.88%       -146,356        -14,636 
     BGP        $-0.080      -7.02%       296,378         40.16%       357,397         48.43%       -61,019         -7,627  
     MTE        $-0.220      -8.66%       69,753          28.79%       116,059         47.90%       -46,306         -2,105  

Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above have high net dollar losses (Change) and extremely low price friction in their stocks. The Friction Factor displays how many more shares of buying than selling are required to move a stock higher by one cent or how many more shares of selling than buying moves a stock lower by 1 cent.

For example, the chart above shows MTE with a dollar loss Friday of $-0.22000 and a Friction Factor of -2,105 shares. That means that it only took 2,105 more shares of selling than buying to move MTE lower by one penny. This means the Market Makers are allowing the stock to drop quickly (low friction). The combination of low friction and negative market direction can drive prices lower faster than normal.
