For example, the chart above shows WIN with a Net Buy Volume of 1,599,816 shares and a Friction Factor of 319,963 shares. That means that it takes 319,963 more shares of buying than selling to move WIN higher by one penny. This means the Market Makers are allowing the stock to move up higher as of Friday (lower friction). And with one of the highest Net Buy Volumes, the combination of low friction and high net buy volume is bullish.
