     FITB       $0.020       0.13%        4,850,928       41.85%       6,559,131       56.59%       -1,708,203      Abnormal
     LUV        $0.240       2.00%        4,143,980       37.54%       5,845,837       52.96%       -1,701,857      Abnormal

     FTR        $0.020       0.26%        3,201,551       36.40%       4,685,655       53.28%       -1,484,104      Abnormal

Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above had more selling than buying on Tuesday and their stock prices rose. 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 FTR with 1,484,104 greater shares of selling than buying (NetVol) and the stock price was up $0.02000. This means the Market Makers were trading the stock in a way inconsistent with normal supply and demand (Economics 101); more selling than buying should cause prices to drop.
