Here is my guess how it can be done:

insert into Timeseries ( tiker, time, avg_price, avg_volume ) select ...

where select .... would be

select    tick,          date_trunc('minute', time) as minute,         avg(price) as avg_price,         avg(volume) as
avg_volume
from      ticker
where  time between 'yourstartdate' and 'yourenddate'
group by tick, minute;
