For example, the chart above shows CPN with a Net Buy Volume of 1,963,215 shares and a Friction Factor of 130,881 shares. That means that it takes 130,881 more shares of buying than selling to move CPN higher by one penny. This means the Market Makers are allowing the stock to move up higher as of Thursday (lower friction). And with one of the highest Net Buy Volumes, the combination of low friction and high net buy volume is bullish.
