actually we are assuming that the electrons are moving in a wave around a nucleaus , and there is no such concept or physical meaning as such . 
the electron have 3 kinds of orbit to move around the nucleaus , and one of these are the circular and eleiptical orbit , which is the simpler one . 
and here when the elctron moves , its moving in its own circumference as well as covering the distance also , 
so, acc to schordinger equation , we can explain the wave motion , 
the psi square term in the schordinger equation will represent the wave function , and it depend upon the coordinate of electron in atoms . 
in physical sense psi will give the amplitude of the elctron . 
and its known that in the case of light wave , 
the square of amplitude is proportional to the intensity of light wave . 
HOPE IT CLEARS YOUR DOUBT 
ALL THE BEST ..
