For example, the chart above shows IMAX with a dollar loss Monday of $-3.66000 and a Friction Factor of -338 shares. That means that it only took 338 more shares of selling than buying to move IMAX lower by one penny. This means the Market Makers are allowing the stock to drop quickly (low friction). The combination of low friction and negative market direction can drive prices lower faster than normal.
