I'm looking at "time and sales" of stock transaction on choicetrade. How can I tell if a transaction was a buy or a sell, or otherwise. I notice some transactions are color coded blue or pink.

Thanks!!!

All transactions are both a buy and a sell. The colors are to provide contrast for ease of reading.

times and sales i used to look at used colors to identify + or - tick which is kind of what you're looking for.
