Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     CEDC       $-0.870      -10.61%      3,461,500       49.33%       3,531,830       50.33%       -70,330         -808    
     MEG        $-0.190      -7.95%       50,755          28.99%       65,844          37.61%       -15,089         -794    
     CENT       $-1.200      -14.89%      72,214          44.20%       91,164          55.80%       -18,950         -158    
     CISG       $-1.230      -10.59%      404,146         46.00%       471,803         53.70%       -67,657         -550    
     BEAT       $-0.920      -24.60%      43,426          42.35%       59,104          57.65%       -15,678         -170    
     DQ         $-0.600      -9.39%       40,551          21.21%       67,688          35.40%       -27,137         -452    
Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above have high net dollar losses (Change) and extremely low price friction in their stocks. 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 CEDC with a dollar loss Tuesday of $-0.87000 and a Friction Factor of -808 shares. That means that it only took 808 more shares of selling than buying to move CEDC 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.
