January 28, 2011 / M2 PRESSWIRE / BUYINS.NET / www.buyins.net, announced today its proprietary Market Maker Friction Factor Report for Friday. Since October 2008 market makers are now required to be on the bid as much as they are on the offer and for like amounts of stock. This Fair Market Making Requirement is designed to prevent market makers from manipulating stock prices. On Friday there were 2046 companies with "abnormal" market making, 1289 companies with positive Friction Factors and 4567 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with the largest percentage gain per share Friday and low price friction (bullish).

MERITOR SAVINGS BANK (OTC:MSVP), WAFERGEN BIO-SYSTEMS INC (OTCBB:WGBS), ACCURAY INC (NASDAQ:ARAY), ALLOY STEEL INTERNATIONAL (OTC:AYSI), COSI INC (NASDAQ:COSI), OPLINK COMMUNICATIONS INC (NASDAQ:OPLK).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     MSVP       $1.052       44.02%       345,246         26.52%       292,131         22.44%       53,115          505     
     WGBS       $0.300       30.00%       153,846         76.35%       44,651          22.16%       109,195         3,640   
     ARAY       $2.020       29.45%       2,370,518       50.61%       2,289,723       48.88%       80,795          400     
     AYSI       $0.860       134.38%      432,946         57.79%       314,247         41.94%       118,699         1,380   
     COSI       $0.230       16.79%       53,380          62.68%       31,778          37.32%       21,602          939     
     OPLK       $4.450       23.03%       903,533         51.81%       827,844         47.47%       75,689          170     

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 OPLK with a dollar gain Friday of $4.45000 and a Friction Factor of 170 shares. That means that it only took 170 more shares of buying than selling to move OPLK 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.
