one of the axes cannot be correct here -- reduction (going to less-positive potentials) does not give a positive current-- it gives a negative current (i should be negative for e- flowing in)

(either y ^^ and x ^^ both tend to negative (American convention) or both tend to positive (IUPAC convention))

so one of the axes is backwards in the diagram
