Re: $tick?????????

The symbol for TICK is $TICK on Tradestation. I believe it is pretty much the same for most platforms. The TICK is number of upticking stocks minus the downticking stocks on the NYSE. So if you have 1000 stocks upticking versus 600 stocks downticking, you will have a TICK reading of +600.
