UKMTO JMIC Advisory Note Update 097 rolls out a new graph of U.S. facilitated transits of the Strait of Hormuz

 Update 097 JMIC Advisory Note 17 September

They are still working out the kinks. At the bottom "Bab-el-Mandeb Transits Last 90 Days" goes on the graph following.

Evidently one has to add the orange trend line and the red line to approximate the true picture of transits, but the red line does not indicate it is a total 7 day rolling average like the orange line.

Remember this is total transits, too, not just tankers. 

A unique and confusing situation to say the least.
