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 LVLT down $-0.11000 with a Friction Factor of -632,719 and a Net Volume of -6,959,908. That means that it takes 632,719 more shares of selling than buying to drop LVLT by one penny.
