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 APDN down $-0.03510 with a Friction Factor of -687,360 and a Net Volume of -2,412,635. That means that it takes 687,360 more shares of selling than buying to drop APDN by one penny.
