Closing Tick

What does it Mean? The number of stocks which closed higher than their previous trade minus the number of stocks whose closing prices were lower than their previous trade. A positive closing tick means that there was buying at the close and indicates strength, the opposite is true for a down closing tick.
Investopedia Says... Those closing higher are called an uptick, while those closing lower are a downtick.
