     SFEG       $-0.110      -9.65%       350,335         47.86%       378,194         51.66%       -27,859         -2,533  
     HDY        $-1.310      -22.86%      4,404,490       44.65%       4,546,360       46.09%       -141,870        -1,083  
     EGLE       $-0.450      -9.96%       5,334,657       43.68%       6,875,852       56.30%       -1,541,195      -34,249 
     EK         $-0.690      -13.22%      13,455,518      42.11%       16,214,002      50.75%       -2,758,484      -39,978

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 MNTA with a dollar loss Tuesday of $-3.15000 and a Friction Factor of -437 shares. That means that it only took 437 more shares of selling than buying to move MNTA 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.
