Bid Size = How many shares wanting to sell at the current ask vs. Ask Size = How many shares willing to buy at he current bid.

usually expressed in 100s (so add two zeros to the spread size to get the actual size quantity)

Thus, a spread size of 10x5 is more "bullish" at that moment and 5x10 is more "bearish" at that moment.
