Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     KNKT       $-0.230      -16.08%      1,183,943       28.82%       2,722,999       66.29%       -1,539,056      -66,915 
     NENE       $-0.280      -16.67%      293,781         29.50%       631,791         63.44%       -338,010        -12,072 
     FIATY      $-11.790     -54.58%      31,801          24.04%       58,247          44.03%       -26,446         -22     
     CHKE       $-2.120      -11.68%      149,533         42.24%       191,735         54.16%       -42,202         -199    
     IVD        $-0.120      -10.71%      109,527         33.37%       208,408         63.50%       -98,881         -8,240  
     REDF       $-0.880      -12.48%      370,104         37.74%       607,945         62.00%       -237,841        -2,703  

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 REDF with a dollar loss Monday of $-0.88000 and a Friction Factor of -2,703 shares. That means that it only took 2,703 more shares of selling than buying to move REDF 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.
