This script is a market sentiment indicator that calculates the cumulative TICK (Trade Imbalance Sentiment) for four major markets: NYSE (New York Stock Exchange), NASDAQ (National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations), Dow Jones, and AMEX (American Stock Exchange).

Here's a breakdown of the script:

1. Market data requests: The script requests data for the four markets, including:
- TICK (Trade Imbalance Sentiment) data
- HLC3 (High, Low, Close) data
- ADVN (Advancing issues), DECL (Declining issues), and UNCH (Unchanged issues) data
2. Cumulative TICK calculation: The script calculates the cumulative TICK for each market by dividing the TICK data by the maximum TICK value for each market.
3. Plotting: The script plots the cumulative TICK values for each market as separate lines on the chart.
4. Background color: The script changes the background color of the chart based on the cumulative TICK values. If all four markets have decreasing cumulative TICK values, the background color turns red. If all four markets have increasing cumulative TICK values, the background color turns green.

The purpose of this indicator is to provide a visual representation of market sentiment across multiple markets. By analyzing the cumulative TICK values, traders can gain insights into market trends and make more informed trading decisions.

Some possible uses of this indicator include:

- Identifying market trends and sentiment
- Confirming trade entries and exits
- Monitoring market conditions and adjusting trading strategies accordingly
