August 5, 2011 the Stock markets were 'broken,' and looking back at the data, it very likely may have to do with HFT or High Frequency Trading algorithm robots. As you can see from the graph volume, the past year it appears the stock market has been taken over by automated trading algorithms . If "day trading" is 5-10 traders per day, then HFT is 100's of traders per minute, computer controlled.

What's the x axis and what's the y axis?

I think x is number of HFT's, y is time of day.

horizontal axis is the time axis, vertical axis counts the number of trades.

it has the numbers 500, 1000, etc. on the vertical axis. is that trades per second, trades per minute, or what ?

There are numerous articles detailing hft account for most trades, as high as 70% of all trades. Who would put their money in the stock market, whether silver miners or precious metals etf's. Pure insanity.

The X axis shows from 9:30am - 4pm when the NYSE is open. The Y axis shows the volume of trading. Fall of 2011 shows north of 1000 trades at any given moment all done by computer algorithm.

It's easy to see how a flash crash can be triggered at any moment with this insanity.
