Cam degreeing help me understand!

But I'm getting constant tdc readings. If the tdc was off it would not be zero both ways. Im not being hard headed here I will try the the stop way I just don't think it's that. The wheel hasn't moved and im still at tdc all the way on both sides of the stroke. If my tdc was 22 degrees off it wouldn't be zero both ways would it?
For example if I had it zero tdc in the compression stroke then spun it around to where #6 is at the compression stroke and #1 is tdc the wheel should read like 44 degrees if I was 22 off. Because you have to split the difference. If you go one way its is 20 and the other way its 24 than 22 would be true tdc so you move the wheel to 22 then spin it back around and get 22 again then remove the stop 0 is true tdc! Correct?
