For example, the chart above shows VIP with a Net Buy Volume of 2,510,047 shares and a Friction Factor of 502,009 shares. That means that it takes 502,009 more shares of buying than selling to move VIP 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.
