Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     PSDV       $0.570       48.72%       293,486         65.28%       155,827         34.66%       137,659         2,415   
     GBR        $1.120       41.79%       82,220          37.52%       53,672          24.49%       28,548          255     
     IMOS       $1.630       18.11%       483,391         60.81%       289,561         36.43%       193,830         1,189   
     VVUS       $3.370       17.99%       14,959,184      51.65%       13,693,393      47.28%       1,265,791       3,756   
     ROYL       $0.780       14.66%       2,608,112       53.73%       2,224,085       45.82%       384,027         4,923   
     GU         $0.260       21.14%       129,239         34.92%       106,957         28.90%       22,282          857     
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 PSDV with a dollar gain Friday of $0.57000 and a Friction Factor of 2,415 shares. That means that it only took 2,415 more shares of buying than selling to move PSDV 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.
