Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     MRK        $0.380       1.16%        6,322,920       26.10%       8,302,707       34.27%       -1,979,787      Abnormal
     NVDA       $0.020       0.19%        8,102,489       47.83%       8,840,739       52.19%       -738,250        Abnormal
     KSS        $0.580       1.18%        2,551,351       26.36%       3,097,839       32.01%       -546,488        Abnormal
     BWEN       $0.020       7.24%        1,136,449       38.19%       1,848,299       62.10%       -711,850        Abnormal
     CVAT       $0.014       28.00%       1,524,614       39.82%       2,214,927       57.85%       -690,313        Abnormal
     POTG       $0.048       18.87%       16,740,116      41.66%       22,405,782      55.76%       -5,665,666      Abnormal
Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above had more selling than buying on Friday and their stock prices rose. 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 MRK with 1,979,787 greater shares of selling than buying (NetVol) and the stock price was up $0.38000. This means the Market Makers were trading the stock in a way inconsistent with normal supply and demand (Economics 101); more selling than buying should cause prices to drop.
