Does anyone know if there is a way to figure out Buying and Selling Volume using EasyLanguage on Tradestation?

I want to incorporate this into my strategy, but cannot easily find anything in the manual or online on the forums.

I have found UpTicks and DownTicks, but that gives the number of ticks that went up or down during a time frame, but does not indicate the volume associated with these ticks.

If this was addressed elsewhere, please point it out, I would appreciate it.

Thanks.

Thats correct upticks/downticks does not take into consideration order size. What about a delta/volume ratio or vice versa? Might give some kind of relationship to bid/ask and volume.
