Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

  Symbol  Change    Percent   Buy Volume   Buy %%    Sell Volume  Sell %%   Net Volume   Friction
  PFE     $0.030    0.12%     7,526,690    28.63%    10,369,240   39.44%    -2,842,550   Abnormal
  PPG     $0.470    0.34%     621,451      15.44%    1,958,858    48.66%    -1,337,407   Abnormal
  AA      $0.010    0.12%     2,986,294    35.70%    4,022,026    48.08%    -1,035,732   Abnormal

  FMCKJ   $0.140    7.82%     683,800      21.40%    1,802,830    56.43%    -1,119,030   Abnormal

Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above had more selling than buying on Monday and their stock prices rose. 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 PFE with 2,842,550 greater shares of selling than buying (NetVol) and the stock price was up $0.03000. This means the Market Makers were trading the stock in a way inconsistent with normal supply and demand (Economics 101); more selling than buying should cause prices to drop.
