For example, the chart above shows WEN with a Net Buy Volume of 1,969,735 shares and a Friction Factor of 246,217 shares. That means that it takes 246,217 more shares of buying than selling to move WEN 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.
