uptick/downtick ratio

    0.04 sec.
uptick/downtick ratio
A relative measure of the degree to which block transactions take place at increasing prices as opposed to declining prices. Transactions that occur on upticks are considered to be initiated by buyers, and sellers are considered to initiate transactions on downticks. Technical analysts consider a high ratio to be bearish because it indicates an overbought market.
