What does the "Volume" number really mean? (Sorry, I'm new to trading.)
What name would you give to the smallest unit of bitcoin (0.00000001)? sat. What name would you give to 100 sats? bit. 1 bit = 1 uBTC. 1,000,000 bits = 1 BTC. It's bits

On mtgox it was a rolling 24hr volume and I think that has become standard with bitcoin volume info.

If you follow bitcoincharts.com then the daily volume (and open/close) resets at precisely 01:00 GMT +0.
All coins traded between then and the next 24 hours are the daily 'volume'.
