They form bars based on a fixed number of trades (ticks), not time. This reveals pure momentum. But choosing the right tick size feels tricky for beginners. Do you guess? No—the Quantum TickSpeedometer solves this. It measures tick velocity in real time. This guides optimal settings and trading decisions.
