  Symbol  Change    Percent   Buy Volume   Buy %%    Sell Volume  Sell %%   Net Volume   Friction
  PSUN    $0.230    11.62%    509,088      53.36%    344,899      36.15%    164,189      7,139

  SR      $0.190    19.07%    166,133      37.43%    163,185      36.76%    2,948        155

  DOLE    $1.270    14.38%    1,270,930    38.33%    1,088,406    32.82%    182,524      1,437

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 PSUN with a dollar gain Friday of $0.23000 and a Friction Factor of 7,139 shares. That means that it only took 7,139 more shares of buying than selling to move PSUN 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.
