Here is a list of the top companies with the largest percentage gain per share Monday and low price friction (bullish).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     SHZ        $0.720       23.38%       2,361,840       49.02%       2,179,942       45.25%       181,898         2,526   
     CBRX       $0.350       23.18%       6,406,515       50.00%       5,878,060       45.87%       528,455         15,099  
     BGP        $0.310       28.70%       6,896,484       46.97%       6,399,437       43.59%       497,047         16,034  
     GKK        $0.580       25.66%       1,247,880       55.08%       838,610         37.02%       409,270         7,056   
     EMKR       $0.260       19.40%       1,976,951       72.61%       745,583         27.39%       1,231,368       47,360  
     MGN        $0.700       24.31%       344,251         48.70%       329,267         46.58%       14,984          214     

Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above have high net buy volumes (buy volume, sell volume) and 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 MGN with a dollar gain Monday of $0.70000 and a Friction Factor of 214 shares. That means that it only took 214 more shares of buying than selling to move MGN higher by one penny. The Market Makers are currently allowing the stock to rise quickly (low friction). The combination of low friction and positive market direction can drive prices higher much faster than normal.
