There aren't nearly enough volume bars to represent each individual bet surely.https://community.betfair.com/general_betting/go/thread/view/94082/23469518/volumes-on-the-market-information-graphs?post_id=419157986#419157986I think it must be amount matched at a price, not individual bets.

Speak to Mr Pumpkin.Sun, 01 Apr 2007 09:10:35 -0500I got another reply to my follow-up email which was equally useless. Nobody at Betfair helpdesk seems to be able to read the question - they just trot out their standard FAQ about the graph, it seems.https://community.betfair.com/general_betting/go/thread/view/94082/23469518/volumes-on-the-market-information-graphs?post_id=419157970#419157970I got another reply to my follow-up email which was equally useless.
