     LVNVF      $0.147       16.33%       157,400         65.45%       72,700          30.23%       84,700          5,774   
     PRXI       $0.470       25.41%       421,556         59.26%       285,237         40.10%       136,319         2,900

Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above have high net buy volumes (buy volume, sell volume) and 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 ACAT with a dollar gain Wednesday of $3.94000 and a Friction Factor of 271 shares. That means that it only took 271 more shares of buying than selling to move ACAT higher by one penny. The Market Makers are currently allowing the stock to rise quickly (low friction). The combination of low friction and positive market direction can drive prices higher much faster than normal.
