     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     INTC       $0.400       1.92%        42,285,808      57.93%       32,894,320      45.07%       9,391,488       234,787 
     CSCO       $0.410       2.00%        25,543,327      58.38%       19,177,187      43.83%       6,366,140       155,272 
     SIRI       $0.040       2.58%        30,001,301      58.79%       21,074,659      41.30%       8,926,642       2,231,661
     GE         $0.250       1.26%        50,355,296      51.36%       39,136,971      39.92%       11,218,325      448,733 
     PFE        $0.050       0.28%        29,984,648      53.61%       21,350,373      38.17%       8,634,275       1,726,855
     SPY        $0.770       0.60%        63,035,657      55.54%       50,625,523      44.61%       12,410,134      161,171 

Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above have high net dollar gains (Change) and very 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 SPY with a Net Buy Volume of 12,410,134 shares and a Friction Factor of 161,171 shares. That means that it takes 161,171 more shares of buying than selling to move SPY higher by one penny. This means the Market Makers are allowing the stock to move up higher as of Monday (lower friction). And with one of the highest Net Buy Volumes, the combination of low friction and high net buy volume is bullish.
