It’s starting at a reasonable point for the data shown, I’m not sure what your point is. Do you think this graph would be more readable if you had 80% of the vertical axis as wasted space so the graph could show nothing from 0 to 95?
I don’t care too much for my personal view because I think I can read the chart well. I met several people in my life that would misunderstand a chart if it would not show the axis starting at 0. I don’t consider the space a waste. I consider it an indication that the shown value is less of an effect than it would indicate if the chart is zoomed in.
To be completely honest, I just wanted to test that commenting on a thread on other lemmy instance from my new lemmy instance works.
Note the vertical axis does not start at 0.
It appears to be representing percent change from the close of the preceding period, so 100% isn’t a totally unjustifiable axis.
I don’t think this was done deceptively. Most financial graphs like this don’t start at 0.

LOL. Support. Good luck with your instance.
And?
And nothing, sorry if i implied anything. I just wanted to point it out. I appologise. This was my first comment on lemmy.
No need to apologise, mate, all good. 👍
I was wondering what point you were trying to make.
