Updated TICK Grid (TheMas7er)
█ OVERVIEW
Shows the NYSE Tick Index, as it is used by TheMas7er.
This indicator has several customization options built-in that can be configured:
• Positive and negative threshold levels with show/hide option and color selection.
• Zero line with show/hide option and color selection.
• Bar colors are fully customizable.
• Symbol can be changed. Default is USI:TICK for the New York Stock Exchange.
Tick Indices are available in TradingView as a symbol - just like any other stock - which you can show on a chart.
This script adds a pane with your selected Tick Index, which can then be used as an indicator to make short-term trading decisions.
█ CONCEPTS
The Tick Index is a short-term barometer of internal market strength.
It shows the number of stocks trading on an uptick minus the number of stocks trading on a downtick, and is used by day traders to view the overall market sentiment at a given point in time.
It's categorized as a Breadth Indicator because it analyzes the "Breadth and Scope" of an entire Index.
Since the Tick Index measures the up/down ticks of a universe of stocks, any collection of stocks (market,index,...) could theoretically have it's own Tick Index.
Some of the major Tick Indices are:
• USI:TICK for the New York Stock Exchange
• USI:TICKQ for Nasdaq
• USI:TICKI for the Down Jones
