Here is a list of the top companies with the highest net sell volume on Wednesday and lowest negative price Friction (bearish).

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 NETL down $-0.12000 with a Friction Factor of -102,135 and a Net Volume of -1,225,618. That means that it takes 102,135 more shares of selling than buying to drop NETL by one penny. On Monday the Market Makers allowed the stock to move down on heavier selling than buying (low negative friction).
