For example, the chart above shows MS with a Net Buy Volume of 1,195,960 shares and a Friction Factor of 39,865 shares. That means that it takes 39,865 more shares of buying than selling to move MS higher by one penny. This means the Market Makers are allowing the stock to move up higher as of Tuesday (lower friction). And with one of the highest Net Buy Volumes, the combination of low friction and high net buy volume is bullish.
