There's a +1200 tick reading

Indeed. Are you just noting it, or do you feel there is a setup based off of that? I'm not attacking, I'm genuinely asking. The reason I ask is because we had a +1200 reading on the TICK this morning at 7:40 PST as well. Do you see something different between the two?
 
Quote from JoshDance:

SPX going for 2011 high of 1270.58? only about 1.5 higher than current high, and corresponds nicely with a low volume area on SPX profile.

Looks like it was rejected.

I'm new to trading so you may want to take anything I say keeping that in mind. With that said, I believe that extreme tick readings (1200 or higher) are a sign of large positions being taken by the bigs and says alot about future direction.

B's point was that around 10:40 this morning there were several 1100+ readings, which was followed by a 6 tick pullback, and now 7 handles higher.

Since SPX long term resistance just hit, perhaps this is a time when a tick fade may be more logical. But all TICK says is, "this many stocks in the NYSE are ticking UP at the moment" -- it's up to us individually to do something with that information if we choose.
