- What do those bars mean?
- What does that yellow line mean?
- What do the green and red bits mean?

The blue bars indicate the transaction volume in that period, this is how many bitcoins have been traded. Use the blue numbers at the left axis to see how many bitcoins were traded.
The yellow line is the average weighted price in that period. Use the yellow numbers on the right to see what the price is.
The green and red parts show the fluctuations (high & low) around the average price. It shows that at 16h00 there was a trade at a price above 1000 (USD I guess). However this could be a single trade of 0.001 BTC for 1 dollar... You cannot derive this from the chart.
Just click on the "WTF?" link in the top-right corner, and it's all explained on the very page you're looking at.
