     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     PRWP       $0.230       21.50%       427,433         59.65%       283,631         39.58%       143,802         6,252   
     APP        $0.160       16.00%       2,205,076       54.52%       1,624,895       40.18%       580,181         36,261  
     GLUU       $0.490       21.21%       2,806,806       58.75%       1,970,829       41.25%       835,977         17,061  
     USAT       $0.290       18.95%       1,537,539       57.14%       1,153,453       42.86%       384,086         13,244  
     PSTI       $0.720       22.15%       1,449,143       51.08%       1,385,925       48.86%       63,218          878     
     ASRV       $0.340       18.89%       59,463          60.75%       38,424          39.25%       21,039          619     

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 ASRV with a dollar gain Tuesday of $0.34000 and a Friction Factor of 619 shares. That means that it only took 619 more shares of buying than selling to move ASRV 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.
