ok. So if I want to move the (appearance of ) market by price, I could do that with one tick or one low volume trade. So the question becomes: is the (appearance of) market being moved by low volume, single trades? If the answer is yes, then I would suggest that the real market is better revealed through volume.

Good topic. If I give you one dollar over the next five minutes, (time), that is one thing. If I give you 50 cents twice, (two ticks), that is the same thing. If I give you one million dollars, (volume), it won't matter to you how long it takes to deliver, or if it is in installments. So, what moves the market, and what should your chart measure?
