For example, the chart above shows PLCE with a dollar gain Wednesday of $18.05000 and a Friction Factor of 2 shares. That means that it only took 2 more shares of buying than selling to move PLCE 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.
