     XLY        $-0.420      -1.08%       5,651,999       57.97%       4,164,895       42.72%       1,487,104       Abnormal

For example, the chart above shows XLY with 1,487,104 greater shares of buying than selling (NetVol) and the stock price was down $-0.42000. This means the Market Makers were trading the stock in a way inconsistent with normal supply and demand (Economics 101); more buying than selling should cause prices to rise.
