     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     XHB        $-0.180      -1.01%       3,388,334       24.11%       8,367,363       59.53%       -4,979,029      -276,613
     Q          $-0.090      -1.29%       11,749,669      39.73%       15,115,102      51.11%       -3,365,433      -373,937
     YHOO       $-0.270      -1.66%       8,932,002       36.63%       15,416,059      63.23%       -6,484,057      -240,150
     PGR        $-0.220      -1.09%       2,514,411       17.11%       11,779,628      80.17%       -9,265,217      -421,146
     VWO        $-0.090      -0.18%       5,608,746       42.74%       7,655,518       58.34%       -2,046,772      -227,419
     EEM        $-0.510      -1.09%       37,761,080      46.14%       41,713,892      50.97%       -3,952,812      -77,506 

Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above have low price friction combined with more selling than buying (negative Net Volume) 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 EEM down $-0.51000 with a Friction Factor of -77,506 and a Net Volume of -3,952,812. That means that it takes 77,506 more shares of selling than buying to drop EEM by one penny. On Monday the Market Makers allowed the stock to move down on heavier selling than buying (low negative friction).
