     EWJ        $-0.010      -0.05%       23,788,782      52.24%       21,748,962      47.76%       2,039,820       Abnormal

For example, the chart above shows EWJ with 2,039,820 greater shares of buying than selling (NetVol) and the stock price was down $-0.01000. 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.
