For example, the chart above shows GE with a Net Buy Volume of 3,288,254 shares and a Friction Factor of 252,943 shares. That means that it takes 252,943 more shares of buying than selling to move GE 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.
