I look at it like this, if you put in a bid to buy a share, say for 44, and I want to get rid of my shares, I think 44 is a fair amount for my shares, so I decide to sell it. It would show as a buy because you put in for the buy and I filled your buy. Same if I put in an ask for 55 and you decide you want to buy stock and you believe 55 is fair, you buy my ask, it will show up as a sale, because my ask was filled. Hope this makes sense. So if you see a bunch of green, that means a lot of people put in bids, and then people decided to sell at that bid. Same as the red a bunch of people start selling their shares for what they want out of it and people buy them. In reality the buys = the sales. Just trying to breakdown why they put the colors the way they do. A lot of green showing people want into the stock and a lot of means people want out the stock, not necessarily for good, just to make a profit, and buy back in at lower price to get more shares to sell later.
