For example, the chart above shows LTHU with a Net Buy Volume of 4,093,296 shares and a Friction Factor of 1,852,170 shares. That means that it takes 1,852,170 more shares of buying than selling to move LTHU higher by one penny. This means the Market Makers are allowing the stock to move up higher as of Friday (lower friction). And with one of the highest Net Buy Volumes, the combination of low friction and high net buy volume is bullish.
