For example, the chart above shows EDMC with a Net Buy Volume of 648,849 shares and a Friction Factor of 20,931 shares. That means that it takes 20,931 more shares of buying than selling to move EDMC higher by one penny. This means the Market Makers are allowing the stock to move up higher as of Wednesday (lower friction). And with one of the highest Net Buy Volumes, the combination of low friction and high net buy volume is bullish.
