According to Clark Moody a total of 2M BTC has been traded this week. The previous record was below 1M so this is certainly significant and could be an ATH which might hold for a very long time, if not forever.
On reddit there was an interesting analysis: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1chtbu/highest_gox_trade_volume_ever_was_yesterday_april/

Quite a lot of buying going on. And the wall at $70 has doubled. Looks like there's going to be a lot of people left behind if this keep up

This has been one wild week... I've been dealing with calls and emails nearly 24 hours a day. Managed to keep most of the panic sells between old and new clients and off the market.
So has the panic stopped? Are we going to see more upwards activity again?
Fundamentally nothing has changed, it is my opinion that the crash was caused by gox and those who sold into the lag, only to see their market orders execute much lower than expected. I currently have >$15M waiting to buy, however the vast majority will be off exchange. Many of these private trades are at individually negotiated prices, sometimes significantly different from market.
So you operate the biggest Bitcoin dark pool, Loaded?
Not normally and probably not biggest, however at the current time it is more efficient to facilitate trade between existing clients. Over the past couple months, my job has primarily been obtaining and securing bitcoins. Only recently have I had any significant sell volume.

At least we seem to be fighting around the $60-$80 range. To be honest, had this been 3 weeks ago we would all been ecstatic to be here. So lets keep it in perspective.

Also, could someone please tell me what the green line represents exactly?

The green line is weird on bitcoinium. It seems to be the price rounded to the nearest whole dollar price. See how it steps from one dollar to the next, never going part way between dollars?
Edit: you can see the effect even better here:
See how the line steps either side of the $67.5 gridline?
It seems to relate to the 3 decimal places at the top. Usually it simply shows xx.000 but occasionally it will show correct values. Example:

So my question is how influential are Adam's wall threads on the market? Was the settling of the brief uncertainty as to whether we were going to a new thread, to carrying on with the old or both the sign the market needed to have the confidence to start buying in earnest again? Will Adam's decision to go with the new the sign the market needed to no longer worry about going below $50?
Thank you Adam for rescuing the Bitcoin market
On an (almost) serious note, thanks for flipping over to a new thread and for opening it to off topic too
I hope the new influx of bitcaintalk members (and us lot who may sometimes be prone to just post anything) won't make it impractically unwieldy too quickly.

Adam, you might want to post a link to this thread into the old thread.
