This is calculated as (the 10 day average volume divided by the 3 month average volume) minus 1 * 100, i.e. the ratio will be negative to the extent that the average daily volume over the last 3 months exceeds the average over the last 10 days.

The big institutional funds cannot trade in and out of a stock without leaving their footprints, and learning to read the signs in daily and weekly volume is important.
