tough question. The tick represents whether stock transactions are being bought on the uptick or the downtick. So a positive tick would mean more buying pressure and a negative tick would mean more selling pressure. However, extreme readings on either end can mean a change of direction in the market. (capitulation). One important note is that the tick does not take into account volume. So a bunch of small trades can skew the numbers. I use the tick with the trin. The trin is similar in that volume is part of the equation. A tick of 1000 is pretty high, but can mean more strength. But we have also had a tick of -900 today, which kinda screws up the interpretation. The TRIN has indicated selling all day long though.
